    Casa Vicens is a modernist building located in Barcelona, in the Gracia district. Work of Antoni Gaudí, it was the first important project of the architect. It was built between 1883 and 1885, although Gaudí drew up the original project between 1878 and 1880. The work is framed in an orientalist style, close to the neo-Mudejar, although interpreted in a personal way, with the stamp of originality that Gaudí knew how to contribute to his projects. In this work, Gaudí outlined for the first time some of his constructive resources that would be common in the emergence of modernism. At the time, it was a highly commented work, which caused a great sensation among the public of the time. At the time the building was built, Gracia was still an independent urban nucleus of Barcelona and possessed of its own town hall, with the category of villa, although it is currently a district of the city.
