The ceiling arch dome of the Cathedral of Familia Sagrada (designed, and originally built by Gaudi) shows the organic structural detail that Gaudi put into everything he did. In this case the normal cylindrical pillars (above) that hold up the roof are designed as trees which naturally carry a lot of weight. The result is a light-weight, bright and airy building that is a pleasure to be in. The photo below is all natural light.
Almost playfully Gaudi put this puzzle on the outer wall of the cathedral.
