Here's one of the upper decorations on Tončić's building. Kamilo Tončić went on to be an important Croatian industrial designer and brought such craftsmanship to manufactured articles for everyday use.This building alone might make Tončić' remembered in Split, but he made an even greater contribution by championing the founding of the Ethnographic Museum and serving as its director until 1944 -- including saving most of its contents from the Nazi occupation.
