Casas de Félix Sáenz, Malaga

Behind the bullring of Malagueta, on Paseo de Reding, on the left side, there are two notable houses in a little-known style called "Regionalism" (Regionalista). The buildings were built in 1922 by an architect commissioned by a major landlord Felix Sáenz. The author of the projects is architect Fernando Guerrero Strachan. Regionalism originates in the Scandinavian countries, it can be described as post-modern. Regionalism has preserved the elegance of the architectural forms of the "belle epoque", but they are more strict, without curved lines. Instead, multi-volume structures, niches, and balconies with tiled canopies are widely used. These elements, characteristic of typical Andalusian individual houses, are a distinctive feature of local regionalism.
