The Casa Mila house was commissioned by Pere Milà, who was married to a rich widow, Mrs. Roser Segimon. They wanted to live in a spectacular house on the most cosmopolitan avenue of the Barcelona of the time which was and still is, Passeig de Gràcia. They chose Gaudí to as the architect of Casa Mila mostly because he had just renovated Batlló House also on Passeig de Gracia, which at the time was considered the height of modern architecture.
