Casa de Don Tomás de Allende, Madrid, Regionalist building in Plaza de Canalejas, Madrid, Spain.

The Casa de Don Tomás de Allende features a prominent corner tower and wooden balconies overlooking Carrera de San Jerónimo street.

Architect Leonardo Rucabado designed this structure in 1916, but after his death in 1918, architects Ramiro Saiz Martínez and Pedro Cabello Maíz completed it in 1920.

The building displays limestone sculptural groups depicting historical figures, including the Lady of Elche and Francisco Pizarro, alongside heraldic emblems and imperial shields.

The six-story building encompasses 5000 square meters, with commercial spaces on the ground floor and large windows facing Plaza de Canalejas and Carrera de San Jerónimo.

Daniel Zuloaga created ceramic finishes while Francisco Torras crafted the wrought iron balconies and railings, complemented by Maumejean stained glass windows.
