Dr. Vero's family house has been built on a wedge-shaped site, which has been given its shape by two intersecting streets in an upscale residential district of Cines. The two-storey puristic house consisted of two wings which opened into a garden at the corner. The wings defined the interior space of the trapezoidal-shaped saloon at the ground level. Specific feature of the house was a large upper floor terrace connected to bedrooms of the family members. Thanks to this feature, the Vero mansion has evolved into a model for terrace houses that were to follow. Along with another mansion of the Weinwirm – Vecsei duo, in the late 1920-ties it was selected for publishing in the "Moderne villas en Landhuisen in Europa en Amerika" book. The building was torn down in the early 1990-ties and a replica has taken its place, serving today as a restaurant.
