Casa Malagrida, Art Nouveau residential building in Dreta de l'Eixample, Barcelona, Spain

Casa Malagrida features a central dome, three vertical sections on its facade, and large windows with lowered arches supported by smooth columns.

Architect Joaquim Codina i Matalí designed this residential structure between 1905 and 1908 for tobacco entrepreneur Manuel Malagrida upon his return from Argentina.

The entrance sculptures by Pere Ricart i Marés depict the Pyrenean eagle and Andean condor, representing the connection between Spain and Argentina.

The building contains shops on the ground floor, while the upper levels maintain their original residential purpose with access through a rectangular vestibule.

In 1927, a young apprentice painter who later became the renowned artist Antoni Clavé was tasked with repainting the golden dome.
