Because of this very ambitious project, Gaudi died in the year 1926 from being hit by a tram car in front of the church. Sagrada Familia has 4 towers already with work still in progress. Gaudi's design is full of ornaments, making some debate whether he was a sculpturer or decorator, rather than an architect. There are many natural forms like the forms of trees, stones, caves, stalactide, and other natural forms.
