Gaudí's most conventional contribution to L'Eixample is the 1901 Casa Calvet, built for textiles industrialist Pere Màrtir Calvet (it now houses a restaurant). Inspired by baroque tendencies, the noble ashlar facade is broken up by protruding wrought-iron balconies, while the interior's most distinctive feature is the staircase.
