Can Cots is an isolated building in the municipality of Masnou, Spain, included in the Inventari del Patrimoni Arquitectònic de Catalunya. The building, designed by Joan creates (Joan Borja i Pons) in a rationalist or functional style, reflects the interior space through its exterior design. It displays no ornamental elements or any additions to the pure constructive forms: smooth surfaces, straight, vertical and horizontal lines, and curves derived from them. The exterior of Can Cots effectively disappears, as the building transforms into a game of volumes and geometric forms. The interior, on the other hand, is a study in open spaces and horizontal geometry.
