The sun parlour and the sewing room

The sun parlours of the house provide excellent views over the river, the bridges and the houses, as the Onyar River curves and the house offers views from a unique perspective. These areas were places to sew, check, darn and embroider the immense amount of linen of the house and the clothes of the members of a large family such as the Masós. The architect designed initials and other motifs for the pillows, cushions, handkerchiefs, bedspreads and quilts which were embroidered on by his sisters and his wife. The plant pots also designed by the architect can be seen in the parlour, with their geometric decoration, similar to the style used by Charles R. Mackintosh and Josef Hoffmann.
