Jujol Centre – Can Negre, Modernist art center in Sant Joan Despí, Spain.

The building displays round shapes on the facade, specific windows, and a terrace balcony covered with trencadís mosaic technique known as carrossa.

The 17th-century farmhouse underwent transformation between 1915 and 1930 when architect Josep Maria Jujol renovated it for lawyer Pere Negre i Jover.

The center maintains the Barcelona Provincial Council Local Museum Network collection and operates as a municipal art school teaching painting and ceramics.

Visitors can explore the building Monday through Friday from 10 AM to 1 PM, Monday through Thursday from 5:30 PM to 8 PM, and Sundays from 12 PM to 2 PM.

The main facade features five medallions forming the inscription 'Ave gratia plena dominus tecum' along the curving profile of the upper level.
