Description of Guided Visit to the Casa Palazuelo in Madrid
Located next to Puerta del Sol, specifically on Calle Mayor, Casa Palazuelo was created by order of D. Demetrio Palazuelo Maroto, a entrepreneur of the 19th century who saw in Antonio Palacios, the architect of Porriño, Pontevedra, the right one for a project initially intended for offices, offices and commercial use, through shops on the floor low.
It is one of the first commercial and office buildings in Madrid where we can observe the influence of North American architecture, which is undeniable. Antonio Palacios was a visionary, an advance of his time who knew how to take into account the most innovative architectural trends that They were already being carried out in other large cities in the world.
The façade tries to reflect the primary function of the building, through the integration of large windows, however, it maintains a certain classicist air by using a series of paired columns of a giant order, which are combined with new materials such as iron and glass >.
The plants were distributed around a central patio with curved and counter-curved shapes, where the different premises open up around it. The patio receives lighting from a large stained glass window that makes the staircase an impressive setting where the gaze cannot be turned away under any circumstances.< /p>
On this visit we are going to immerse ourselves in the history of this charismatic building, one of the most unknown jewels of all the extensive heritage that Madrid treasures, designed in 1919 and inaugurated in 1921, a building that has now exceeded a century since its construction and that, despite this, remains in a magnificent state of conservation.
