We also went to Santa Caterina market by Enric Miralles and Benedetta Tagliabue (EMBT). For all the hype about it's design, the atmosphere in this market was not as good as the La Ramblas one because of the lack of the amicable old-town feel. It feels like a food court. Architects don't always get things right. We must endeavour to always think about the users. That's what mummy always says, but it's hard to live up to it. I'll try.
