Casa de les Punxes, Modernista residential building in Eixample, Spain.
The building incorporates six pointed towers with conical spikes at the intersection of Rosselló, Bruc, and Avinguda Diagonal streets in Barcelona.
Josep Puig i Cadafalch designed this residence in 1905 for the three Terradas sisters: Angela, Josefa, and Rosa, following their father's inheritance.
The facade displays stone sculptures by Enrique Monserdà, including depictions of Sant Jordi and angels that represent Catalan identity and traditions.
The building stands at Avinguda Diagonal 420, with access through Diagonal metro station and several bus lines connecting to central Barcelona.
The structure employs cast iron pillars and metal beams instead of traditional load-bearing walls, creating an innovative open plan layout for its time.
