Casa Calvet in Barcelona was designed by Antoni Gaudí for a textile manufacturer, whom the page links to Andreu Calvet. Construction ran from 1898 to 1900, and the infobox and text agree.

The article calls the style Modernisme. It mentions wrought iron and stone in the ground-level gallery and entrance columns shaped like stacked bobbins, but it does not state their material. It gives no dimensions. The building originally combined commercial space in the basement and ground floor with a residence.

Spain designated it a Cultural Heritage monument on July 24, 1969. The article says it was among the modernist works given the Arts Building Annual Award between 1899 and 1906. It gives no current use, hours or ticket details.
