Things to look out for
The Casa Amatller is a remodelling of the architect Josep Puig i Cadafalch, carried out between 1898 and 1900. The house already existed, it was a building built in 1875 by the master builder Antoni Robert and known as Casa Martorell. A three-story, neoclassical-style building, typical of the Cerdà Plan. Antoni Amatller bought the building in 1898 and commissioned Puig to do a remodelling. Puig i Cadafalch specifically intervened in the reformation of the façade, main floor, the lobby, the common spaces (neighbour’s staircase and interior patio), and the photographic studio at the gable end of the house. Puig i Cadafalch began his project with several sketches of the façade that today are kept in the National Archive of Catalonia and were among those that Puig hid in his own house during the dictatorship. The strong personality of the owner and his interests are reflected in the architect’s work.
