The Sant Quintí II building is part of a wider project that includes a set of homes and apartments that occupies one of the sides and two chamfers of an Eixample block; independent buildings due to the type of exchange promotion which still maintain the unit of façade and access to the parking floor.
Located between partitions, reaching the chamfer with Industria Street, it is developed in: six type floors and an attic, intended for housing, mezzanine floor for offices, ground floor for lobbies and commercial premises, and basement floor for parking.
There are 12 homes per floor served by three stairs. These are rent-free, with a living-dining room, kitchen, three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a terrace.
The scheme follows the current typology of Barcelona's Eixample, with the inner courtyard as the backbone element and a staircase that serves four homes per floor. In the central part of the plot, there are two staircases, each with two houses facing the street and two on the patio. In the central part the courtyards of light that communicate with each other are located. The houses have double ventilation on the façade and patio.
In the chamfer area, another staircase serves four houses facing the street and with a courtyard of lights in the middle.
The façade is solved in a unitary manner in the set of both buildings, following the guidelines of Sant Quintí I: it is treated as an externally compact building, where the façade is shown as an envelope that covers everything and even tries to encompass the attic floors, perforated by openings, where the functions of the interior are not distinguished and which, determined by the corner geometry of the extension, adopts different alterations in the overhangs to accentuate the unity of the façade and give direction to it.
