Casa Agustí is a modernista building in the Progrés quarter of Badalona, located in the metropolitan area of Barcelona, Catalonia. Built in 1893, it was designed by the renowned architect Lluís Domènech i Montaner as the residence of the engineer Eduard Agustí Saladrigas.
The building served as a private home until 1936, when it was transformed into a restaurant. It still serves food and refreshments today. Notable architectural features include a round red brick tower and surrounding gardens.
The building is located at Plaça de Pep Ventura 33. While the Pep Ventura metro station is nearby, the undergoing extension of the metro network has allegedly damaged the facade of the structure.
