Cal Marquès
autoria desconeguda
Civil building Set of stately buildings with typically neoclassical features. Formed essentially by a body with an eight-sided polygonal plan, in the centre of which stands a large lantern tower, also octagonal in shape and which due to its dimensions is practically a dome intended for interior lighting. On each side of the drum there is an elliptical opening and is covered by an eight-sided roof. The ternary structure used in each of the complex's façades is worth noting: a semicircular arch in the middle and architraves on the sides (Venetian architecture). The use of columns with Corinthian capitals for the porches, balustrades, hydrias and antefixes that decorate both the building and the garden that surrounds it is interesting, with a marked neoclassical taste. The building is accessed by a large staircase.1870

Governor's Tower. Piarists of Alella
A group of civil buildings, currently owned by the Piarists, made up of many outbuildings, among which there are often no stylistic relationships. One of the characteristics of the complex is its strong eclecticism: from a neoclassical to neo-Gothic façade mixed with neo-Arabic elements; classical columns supporting horseshoe arches; use of brick combined with the use of stone and flat roofs with pinnacles; and classical sculptures coexisting with modernist lampposts. The complex is surrounded by a large garden which also shares its general characteristics – alongside the French-style cypress trees, there are palm trees. Originally there was Mas Torrella, dating from the 14th century. At the end of the 19th century, in 1890, the property passed into the hands of Antoni Borrell, who left it to the Pious Schools when he died. Antoni Borrell, Governor of Catalonia, was the one who ordered the construction of the current building.1890

Hidalgo House
Garcés -Sòria Arquitectes, Jordi Garcés i Brusés, Enric Sòria i Badia
Detached house on a large sloping plot very well oriented regarding the sun and views that reach the sea. The house is resolved formally with the abstract game of the three volumes and the three large double-height windows that relate to each other through the variable rhythm of their relative positions, giving the image of a privileged vantage point. The external cubic rigidity is diluted in the interior where the space is continuous and fluid, recalling the original geometric composition when encountering the façade planes, which limit the built volume with the presence of their large openings.1984 - 1987

Alta Alella Wine Tourism Centre
Soldevila Soldevila Soldevila Arquitectes, Alfons Soldevila Barbosa, David Soldevila Riera
Situation. The centre is located in a valley, between the municipalities of Tiana and Alella, in the Alta Alella Project wine estate. The main objective was the construction of a wine tourism, reception, tasting and sales centre. It is a reference building integrated into a privileged landscape, surrounded by vineyards and with views over the Mediterranean. The building is arranged on an old agricultural pond, where, while taking advantage of an existing adjoining beam, a cover is supported on a large wooden deck. A green cover in the central part and vine or pergola at the ends, which qualifies with different degrees of shadow and textures, as well as with different spaces. It is a building made with very few resources which aims to integrate and collect the essence of the place (Maresme), of the land (granite), and of the product that is produced there (wine and cava). Goal. Provide a background where you can enjoy and taste good wine surrounded by vineyards.2011
