The architect Pere Falqués i Urpí, an exponent of classical Modernisme, designed this building in Jardinets de Gràcia also known as “El Palauet”.

Cultural heritage
Sgraffitoed butterflies and four-leaf clovers, as if in a kind of pattern, sinuous balconies with finely worked wrought-iron bars and extensive floral motifs framing the openings. Built in 1902, it is certainly a gem and high-point of Catalan Art Nouveau movement. Its date is framed at the top in a magnificent ornamental feature.
Behind the crowning feature, the building conceals a rooftop whose undulating railings we see on either side – with a ground floor and two storeys.
