He studied at the Barcelona School of Architecture and qualified as an architect in 1892, which means he started out on his professional career just at the very beginning of Modernisme. Works of his in Barcelona that can be regarded as belonging to Modernisme are Vil·la Rosa (1902-1911; Carretera de l'Església, 60 B) and Domènech chemist's shop (Ronda de Sant Pere, 71, moved to Verdi, 7), which won the Barcelona City Council Prize for the best building of the previous year in 1907.
