This pink and white marble residence is at the top end of the Passeig de Gràcia. The design is assymetrical with an elaborate outer corner (the building is a backwards "L"); it would have been even more impressive had the corner dome been finished. The main entrance and carriage entrance is at the top of the backwards "L."Left: view toward the corner; center and right: views of one side of the structure with the corner at the left | ||
