Casa Terrades is a six sided apartment block built in the early 20th Century that was designed by the Modernist architect Josep Puig i Cadafalch. Three houses were already on the site and they were converted for the project, the largest of the architect`s work. The building is a mixture of Gothic and Renaissance styles. There are Gothic spires on the six turrets whilst the red brick and its ornamentation are in the Modernist style. This free standing apartment block is located a few blocks away from Casa Mila, a building by Gaudi.
