There is almost no other architectural style - apart from Gothic - that has influenced the face of Barcelona as much as Modernisme - the Catalan art nouveau. The epoch of Modernisme left the city with a unique cultural heritage. This is proven by the fact that no other city has as many buildings on the UNESCO World Heritage List as Barcelona which contains nine entries, and all of them are works of Modernisme.

The lobby is decorated with ornamental elements of the classical repertoire, such as ionic columns and giant pillars that flank the lateral bodies, as well as works of sculpture and wrought iron handrails. The main staircases and an elevator lead up to the apartment which is located on the third floor.

The 25m2 living room has plenty of natural light and is annexed to the formal dining room and access to the kitchen is via beautiful Austrian cherry double doors.
