He qualified as an architect from the Barcelona School of Architecture in 1887 and went back there ten years later as a teacher.
He drew up the urban development plan for Barcelona that was taken into consideration when some of the outlying villages were incorporated into the city. On the basis of this, he was later commissioned to plan the urbanisation of Montjuïc Park and Plaça d'Espanya in Barcelona.
He did not produce many works, but one of the best is Casa Conrad Roure (1901-1902; Aribau, 155), featuring floral ornamentation influenced by Art Nouveau, and Casa Rabaseda (1912; Diputació, 158).
In 1896 he won a prize with P. Borrell for plans for Christopher Columbus's Vault in Santo Domingo cathedral, which were in fact used to make it.
