Casa Isabel Pomar

Casa Isabel Pomar is a residential building with Catalan modernist elements located in Dreta de l'Eixample, distinguished by its narrow facade with decorative features. The ground floor holds a shop while residences occupy the upper levels, with green ceramic tiles and wrought iron balconies throughout.

The house was designed between 1904 and 1906 by Joan Rubió i Bellver, a student of Antoni Gaudí, for widow Isabel Pomar. This period marked a mature phase of Catalan modernism in Barcelona.

The building participates in an educational program that highlights important architecture from the early 20th century and makes the district's history accessible to visitors. Walking past it, you can see the architectural details of that era in the everyday surroundings.

The building is located on an active residential street in Eixample and is easy to spot from outside. A daytime visit works best to see the facade details and ceramic decorations clearly.

A helical fluted column beneath the first-floor bow window serves as a striking visual support for the facade composition. This unusual architectural element reflects the creative approach of its designer.
