Vincon (tel 93 215 60 50; Passeig de Cracia 96) has the slickest designs in furniture and household goods, local and imported. Not surprising really, since the building belonged to the Modernista artist Ramon Casas.
Bd Ediciones de Diseno (tel 93 458 69 09; Carrer de Mallorca 291) is worth a look, even if you have left your credit cards at home. Here you will find a collection of pieces for the home by some of Barcelona's leading designers. Opened in 1972, this prize-winning store is located in a Modernista house built by Domenech i Montaner.
Artquitect (tel 93 268 23 86; Carrer del Comers 31) is interesting for enthusiasts of building design.
