Casa Laporta, Art Nouveau residential building in Alcoy, Spain.
Casa Laporta is a residential building in the Valencian Art Nouveau style, distinguished by its symmetrical facade with ornamental patterns throughout. The structure includes a semi-basement, mezzanine, three main residential floors, and an attic level.
Architect Timoteo Briet Montaud designed this residential building in 1904, bringing the Art Nouveau style to Alcoy for the first time. A matching garage followed a year later next to the main structure.
The building reflects the Valencian Art Nouveau movement through its decorative facade details and ornamental elements. This design approach shaped how residential homes looked in the city during the early 1900s.
The building sits centrally on País Valenciano Avenue at number 26 in Alcoy and is easy to reach on foot. The nearby garage on Emili Sala Square allows visitors to see both structures in one visit.
The adjacent garage was built in 1905 at Plaza Emili Sala and repeats the same design details as the main residence. This consistency shows how deliberately the architect applied his style across both structures.
