Barcelona was and still is defined as a City of Architects.
You can see Architect Enric Sagnier i Villavecchia’s profile here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enric_Sagnier
Our building is the only one he built in Ciutat Vella, next to Pla de Palau, the Royal Palace next to our building.
Enric Sagnier i Villavecchia built and decorated the façade of our building with graffiti in the modernist style and, as private owners, we took care of cleaning and restauring them after a century of dust. We did our best as private owners to give the façade’s graffiti their due value in beauty for the city and for visitors. We hope it will last another century!
The City of Barcelona’s Department of Heritage gave their approval and appreciated our efforts an expenses for for the restauration. Separately we also paid for the restauration of the balcony on the principal floor, overlooking Plaça de les Olles. It is
part of the beauty of the building, witnessing the time when prestigious families watched from upstairs and saluted people from above.
