Villa Serra

El Xalet Serra de Reus
Spain, Reus
Initially, a residential building connected to industrial buildings was built on this site by the English wine merchant Charles Huyson. In 1910, Antoni Serra i Pàmies, the owner of a large pharmaceutical company, bought this piece of land in order to rebuild the building according to the original design of the architect Juan Rubio Bellver (Joan Rubió i Bellver), student of Antoni Gaudí (d'Antoni Gaudí). The villa was built in modern style. The ceiling of the dining villa is decorated with paintings by Thomas Bergadà
