Located in a residential building designed in 1938 by the Architect Juan Talavera y Heredia, one of the greatest exponents of the Regionalist style in Seville.
Juan Talavera was a contemporary of the Architects José Espiau and Aníbal González, the latter, without a doubt, the most recognized architect of the period (Author of the Plaza de España in the María Luisa Park). The style was considered official status during the preparations for the Ibero-American Exposition by the Seville City Council from 1912, which recommended the use of local historical elements and the rejection of Modernism. It can also be seen in other works by Juan Talavera, such as the Costurero de la Reina building, next to the María Luisa Park, the San Bernardo Bridge or the Telefónica Building in the Plaza Nueva, next to the Seville City Council. The Talavera Architect can be considered one of the most important representatives of this style, and his work as Architect of the Town Hall for thirty years was decisive in the transformation of the city at that time.
