Can Roig i Torres
autoria desconeguda
The building is in the French modernist style. It has its back to the streets that delimit it, where it forms a chamfer, and has its main façade in the garden. The house is made up of two angled bodies, with a ground floor and a first floor (and a semi-basement in the left body) and an attic, joined by the access body with the staircase, crowned by the characteristic spiked tower. The entire roof is made of blue ceramic. The interiors have examples of decorative arts, such as woodwork, ironwork, etc. It was built on the initiative of Rafael Roig i Torres, Uruguayan consul in Barcelona. In 1913, the house received an award from the City Council. During the war it was a hospital, then it was the headquarters of the Falange and, later, a school. In 1987 it was remodelled to become the Municipal School of Music. In 2007, the city's new auditorium was inaugurated in the basement of the building.1906 - 1911

Rectory of the Major Church of Santa Coloma de Gramenet
Francesc d'Assís Berenguer i Mestres
Interesting treatment of the stone façades, which harmonises with the adjacent church and the fences delimiting the site. The building, with a semi-basement and three storeys, plays with the staggering of volumes, especially in the entrance area, where a small staircase leads to a porch supported by a simple column with an Ionic capital. The façades combine symmetry and asymmetry. It was built at the same time as the new parish church of Santa Coloma, with which it forms an ensemble.1912 - 1915

Portería del Recinto Torribera Pavilion
Rafael Masó i Valentí, Josep Maria Pericas i Morros
It is a rectangular two-storey building designed as an access door to the Torribera complex which forms the axis of symmetry of the whole complex. The facings of the main façades combine stucco with artificial stone ornamentation. In the middle it has three arches, a large one for vehicular traffic and on both sides a smaller one for pedestrians. It has a cornice that surrounds the entire property with neo-baroque gables. Four prestigious medical doctors are represented by sculptures: Marià Cubí, Santiago Ramon y Cajal, Emil Wilhelm Magnus Georg Kraepellin and Jean-Martin Charcot. The roof is of Arabic tile on two sides and presents the crossing with the roof of the central body of the same characteristics. The goal of the Torribera complex is part of the project that in 1917 was the winner of the competition promoted by the Mancomunitat of Catalonia.1917 - 1936

Torribera Precinct
Rafael Masó i Valentí, Josep Maria Pericas i Morros
A health complex built in various phases from 1927 to 1936, based on the winning project of the competition organised in 1917 by the Mancomunitat de Catalunya. This project, drawn up by Rafael Masó and Josep Maria Pericas, was executed nine years later when Masó, affected by a political sanction, cannot be listed as the architect of the works, although it is recorded that he was working at least in 1926 and 1927. -
The Tower of the Torribera Precinct
Rafael Masó i Valentí, Josep Maria Pericas i Morros
Four-sided building with a square ground plan and a hipped roof with flat ceramic tiles and pronounced eaves. The façade has a hierarchy of triple central openings in contrast to the flat, solid wall. On the ground floor, there is a doorway in the form of a semicircular arch, preceded by a porch with an opening in the centre and another on each side. On the ground floor and above this atrium, there is a balcony with a triple window. On the top floor there are three horizontal windows. The building used to be the residence of the director of the mental clinic. It is currently used as a centre for higher studies at the UNED - Terrassa and is known as the Tower building. -
