Modernist values

The renovation of Casa Burés not only preserves the building’s structure and its listed decorative elements, but also maintains all the advantages of its modernist architecture: light, space, habitability, high-quality materials and maximum comfort.

Casa Burés

Constructed between 1900 and 1905, Casa Burés takes its name from its first owner, Francesc Burés, owner of Industrias Burés, one of Spain’s most successful textile companies.

Originally, the ground floor housed the company’s headquarters while the 1,000 m2 first floor was the Burés family home. The upper floors – which were accessed by one of the first lifts to be installed in Barcelona – then comprised nine 300 m2 rental apartments.
