The building’s ornamentalist design, resembling the abundant decorations of Catalan modernism, could be derived from this connection to Aréchiga. Its patron and original owner was Luciano Fernández Gómez. The local historian Carlos González Salas has said that the Fernández House has long been known in Tampico as the “cake house,” a name that reveals the irony of the building’s ostentation, a symptom of the rising prosperity of its owners at a time that the nationalist cultural project – which aimed for hegemony – had not managed to permeate all sectors of Mexican society. La casa Fernández, emplazada en el primer cuadro del puerto de Tampico, fue proyectada y construida en 1926 por el ingeniero tampiqueño Bartolo Rodríguez Saunders (1896-1983), formado en el Georgia Tech, de la ciudad de Atlanta y por el arquitecto Aréchiga, de origen catalán. El tratamiento ornamentalista del edificio, próximo a la abundancia decorativa del modernismo catalán, podría estar asociada con el origen de Aréchiga. El promotor y propietario original de la casa Fernández fue Luciano Fernández Gómez. Carlos González Salas, cronista vitalicio del puerto de Tampico, señaló que la casa Fernández había sido conocida como “casa del pastel,” nombre que manifiesta la ironía popular resultante de la ostentación del inmueble, síntoma de la emergente prosperidad de los propietarios, en una sociedad marcada por el auge petrolero, cuando el proyecto cultural nacionalista -a pesar de ser hegemónico– no permeaba en todos los sectores de la sociedad mexicana.
