Lloret I Homs created the Barraquer Ophthalmology Center in Barcelona[1]. A member of the GATCPAC he was nevertheless more influenced by the European style of the 1930s, the ideas of Bauhaus. Inaugurated in 1941 it is also well known for its spiral staircase.[2]

His earlier work was in the style of modernism and included summer residences in Sant Andreu de Llavaneres

He is the architect of several emblematic palaces in the neighborhood of Sarria-Gervasi, Barcelona, like the Torre de San Fernando, 1920 built for Emilio Heydrich at the Calle Iradier 9,[3] which since 1960 hosts the police station of the Mossos de Escuadra.La Quinta de San Isidro, 1920[4], is another impressive private palace, owned by Isidro Pons de Pascual, which was converted into the Cruz Blanca Clinical Center.

Apartment houses in the post-war style are the Rancho Grande, 1944 or his buildings at the Josep Bernard street. Most of his buildings are currently under official protection.[5]

gollark: Yes, 1.1 isn't part of the formatting code so it just prints the float then that.
gollark: Writing a bare metal microkernel in Haskell is not very practical.
gollark: > I never tried it. It's nice that it has these safety features but I prefer C++ still. > If I want to be sure that my program is free of bugs, I can write a formal specification and do a > correctness proof with the hoare calculus in some theorem proofer (People did that for the seL4 microkernel, which is free from bugs under some assumptions and used in satellites, nuclear power plants and such)Didn't doing that for seL4 require several hundred thousand lines of proof code?
gollark: Most countries have insanely convoluted tax law so I assume it's possible.
gollark: Hmm, so you need to obtain a hypercomputer of some sort to write your tax forms such that they cannot plausibly be checked?
