Casa Lleó Morera

L'Eixample


Domènech i Montaner’s 1905 contribution to the Illa de la Discòrdia, with Modernista carving outside and a bright, tiled lobby in which floral motifs predominate, is perhaps the least odd-looking of the three main buildings on the block. It's now occupied by luxury fashion store Loewe.
