"La Bombonera" is located on a small plot with a single façade on the promenade, which induces Raspall to exploit the elements on a small scale and to combine the small dimensions of the house with an unreal and dematerialised image. Raspall makes the white colour of the wall coverings play with the green colour of the doors and windows and the navy blue of the sgraffito borders, with very smooth designs. The house follows the same configuration as other seasonal houses in Raspall, with the staircase topped by the tower. At the entrance door there is a unique wrought iron lantern unique in the work of Raspall, which will be repeated later in the house built in 1914 for Manuel Maresma.
La Bombonera (1910) was built with some modifications compared to the initial project. At first it consisted of a semi-basement and ground floor. Later, a covered floor was added and a tower was erected. The house is structured around a patio. The base or plinth of the building is made of more or less irregular stone, covered by a green ceramic border with smooth and raised pieces. The rest of the façade is stuccoed in green and white. A powerful balustrade cornice (under which there is a sgraffito border and above it a wrought iron railing) crowns the primitive building. Likewise, the openings are framed by sgraffitos of a delicate floral pattern. The bookcase blinds also have fine floral motifs. It is the first time that Raspall uses semicircular, elliptical arches and an oval opening. On the west side it has a tribune or gallery with stained-glass windows. It was built at the same time as the Iris Tower or shortly after. La Bombonera was restored in 1990.
The "Mansana Raspall" is a unique set in the history of modernist architecture in our country: it consists of four isolated buildings, located on the same block of houses, built by the architect Manuel Joaquim Raspall between 1910 and 1913. The four buildings have an obvious stylistic unity, reinforced by the garden fences, which use the same language: irregular stone, mosaic and wrought iron, with sinuous lines. The Raspall Houses are very representative of the work of the first stage of this architect, who belongs to the second generation of modernist architects, and are the gateway to the long Passeig de Plàtans, where there are the most modernist buildings important of the population.
The promoters of the Barbey and Barraquer houses were prominent members of the Barcelona bourgeoisie, who had them built as second homes. La Bombonera and the Iris Tower were built by Cecília Reig Argelagós, from La Garriga, who rented them out as a second residence.
