Conservation at La Pedrera: Stone, Iron, and Color

Conservators combine surveys, laser cleaning, and micro‑mortar repairs. Ironwork is de‑rusted, primed, and painted; painted plaster is consolidated.

Practices

• Diagnostics: map material decay to guide interventions.
• Minimalism: least invasive methods first.
• Documentation: before/after records assure continuity.

Material ↔ Method Matrix

Conservation is a dialogue: past intent, present science, future care.

Care Schedule

• Periodic surveys for façade and courtyards.
• Targeted repairs post heavy rainfall.
• Repainting cycles for ironwork.
