The Pavillion House, now appears to be the administration, and security offices for Guell Park.
The roof, as usual for Gaudi designed houses, is covered in stunning mosaics, and from a distance looks like snow.
The Chimney looks like a large mushroom and again a typical whimsical, fantasy Gaudi design, borrowed from nature.

"The undulating Park Guell is a must see for anyone visiting or living in Barcelona. Antoni Gaudi's public park is a wondrous combination of art, architecture and nature.

On the hill of El Carmel in the Gracia district of Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain, lays Park Guell the beautiful garden complex with architectural elements, which Gaudi architected between 1900 and 1914."
