Francisco Carlier remodeled the towers of the El Pardo Palace in the style of the French palaces and built the Royal Chapel, he modified the old cloister with angular balconies in the gallery at the same time that he closed the old galleries of footings, giving unity to the four canvases of the interior.

Apart from the repair of La Quinta in 1746, and several functional buildings altered or disappeared, Carlier's main action in El Pardo was the renovation of the palace built by the Austrias, to house the family of Philip V.

Of the entire original set of Felipe II Carlier eliminated some elements in its new interior layout. He eliminated the chapel, and decided to build another, larger one, to serve as the parish of the Site, next to the palace. The decoration is altered due to the renovation carried out by Villanueva y Gonzalez Velazquez After the fire of 1806, the spatial structure of the interior, especially the octagon shaped like a transept and bordered by a continuous ambulatory, and the rigor in the articulation of the elements reveal more rationalist architectural approaches than the Italian trends in force at the time.

Carlier, French, was the son of another architect, Rene Carlier, who worked on the design and construction of the gardens of the Royal Palace of La Granja de San Ildefonso, in Segovia.

Carlier's best-known work in Madrid is the Santa Barbara Parish, a masterpiece of Madrid Baroque.
