House of the Flowers
Information
Located in Chamberí, it was designed by Secundino Zuazo in 1931. It is, without a doubt, the most interesting building of the modern Madrid expansion district and it was home to the poet Pablo Neruda when he came to Madrid in 1934. In 1981 it was declared National Monument.
The 5-story building has 288 exterior apartments, well-lit, airy and functional emphasizing the healthy environment so popular in those times. The apartments are distributed around three inner courtyards with the central one being the biggest. The corner on the Princesa Street has balconies with window boxes that give the name, House of Flowers, to the building.
