All the facilities created for the event were very popular with the people, especially the fountains as well as the fun fair, the Palau Nacional floodlights, the zeppelin, the gardens, the new stadium, the new swimming pool, the Teatre Grec and all the exhibitions.
Also still standing is the monumental complex in Plaça d'Espanya (1929), by Josep M. Jujol, contributors to which were the sculptors Miquel Blai, Llucià and Miquel Oslé and Frederic Llobet, whose figures symbolise the rivers Ebre, Tagus and Guadalquivir alongside concepts such as health and abundance.
Artistically speaking, the Exhibition marked the apotheosis of a monumental style somewhere between the Baroque and Noucentisme, an antiquated form of monumentalism in the opinion of M. Carmen Grandes: "This monumentalism was never reflected in the quality of the materials, in the pathology of buildings or in the arrangement of space.

In fact the design of the new banner are a synthesized fusion of the banner made in 1893 and the original designs of Josep Puig i Cadafalch.
The figure of the Virgin Mary has been redesigned more in accordance to the Puig i Cadafalch’s design of Saint George, as the embroidery of 1893 was quite different from the original style.
Anyway, it is a synthesized version between the original embroidery and the initial design of the architect from Mataró: The dragon is much more like the original design but the shield is kept as in the embroidery.

"manzana", meaning both "block of houses" and "apple", and on the coincidence, in the same block, of buildings by the three leading architects of the moment –Puig i Cadafalch, Domènech i Montaner and Gaudí-, which were thus likened to the vain goddesses Hera, Athene and Aphrodite who originated the Trojan War).
The main floor, with a global decoration designed by the same architect, houses, in a difficult compromise, the original furniture, the collections of Antonio Amatller, and the library and photo archives of the research institute.
Moving the holdings and facilities of the research institute to other parts of the building and restoring that unique interior to its aspect of the year 1900 is one of the projects the foundation is trying to activate.

Among other architects and decorators that have left significative signs of the Modern Style in the city, the most well-known are: Lluís Domènech I Muntaner (Barcelona 1850-1923), Antoni Gaudí; I Cornet (Reus 1852 - Barcelona 1926) and Josep Puig i Cadafalch (Mataró 1867 - Barcelona 1957).
Because of the politic circumstances of the time, in 1924 Puig i Cadafalch suffered a disrepute campaign.
Apart from his works as a house designer, he also was an important architect of institutional buildings, like the Palau de Justícia (courts), where he collaborated with Josep Domènech i Estapà, and the Duana Nova, that he designed together with Pere Garcia i Faria.

The modernisme has been one of the most exceptional architectural languages used to build the Eixample, this most remarkable grid-shapped cityscape of Barcelona.
In this surrounding, the polifacetic Puig i Cadafalch was one of the architects providing singularity in an orderly manner.
In the Ametller house, he recreates a very personal view of the neogothic style, mixing some elements from the ghotic in the Netherlands with others from the local Catalan gothic, resulting an exquisitely balanced composition.
