He was a member of a family of furniture makers that had set up a company, Busquets Germans, in the first half of the 19th century.

In addition to his training in the family workshop, he enrolled in La Llotja, the Barcelona School of Fine Arts, to study drawing and started work as a draughtsman in 1895. The reputation he acquired was comparable to that of G. Homar, but he always maintained a certain eclecticism as a result of his customers' tastes.

In his furniture, influenced by A. Gaudí, he mainly applied the technique of pyrography in place of marquetry, although in some instances he used painting on wood instead. In his work, which displays great technical skill and has many ornamental details, he employed the wavy line "whiplash" structure, which made his pieces extremely light.

The furniture in Casa Juncadella (1901; Rambla de Catalunya, 33) and Casa Evarist Arnús, "El Pinar" (1902; Manel Arnús, 1-31), both designed by the architect E. Sagnier, were made by his workshop.

He was chairperson of the Cabinet Makers' Association and Foment de les Arts Decoratives (Promotion of the Decorative Arts - FAD) from 1918 to 1921.
