Map of Timişoara: Discount Bank
The building of Banca de Scont from Piața Unirii was constructed in the 1906-1908 time period, following the plans of the architects Marcel Komor and Dezso Jakab, students of architect Odon Lechner
The three-floor palace has an asymmetrical construction, the windows and the gables adorned with colored ceramic. The usage of curved, arched elements and that of the colored ceramic makes many specialists discover a clear Gaudiana influence. The rounded forms are conspicuous above the ground floor. The facades of the two floors are marked by portions that extrude, the longest is found in the corner and it resembles a tower. The short façade has a balcony which strengthens the asymmetry of the construction. The rooms from the ground floor are used as shops and seats, while those from the two floors are habitable.
