This architect is regarded as having been the one to introduce the Modernista aesthetic to Rosario (Argentina). He qualified as an architect from the Madrid School of Architecture in 1906 and not long afterwards, in 1910, went to Rosario.
The buildings he erected in the city where he was born, such as Cases Casasayas (1908-1911; Plaça des Mercat, 13-14), emblem of Modernisme on the island, and Casa Segura (1908; Plaça de la Conquesta, Palma de Mallorca), date from these early years.
When he went to Rosario he mixed with the group of Spanish people living there and began to design monumental buildings for them reflecting the importance of the Spanish presence in the city. He received the patronage of the Cabanellas family, of Valencian-Catalan origin, for whom he built a large part of his works, such as, for example, Casa Cabanellas (1914-1915; Sarmiento, 1026), on which the Catalan sculptor D. Massana worked with him.
His buildings feature high quality ornamentation, such as the ironwork, tiles and stained glass windows, and show the influence of Catalan Modernisme and Viennese Sezessionstil.
Of his Modernista works in the city, the Club Español (1915; Rioja, 1052-1054), on which D. Massana also worked with him, merits special mention.
