ADOLF LOOS (dec 10, 1870 – aug 23, 1933)
Description:
Was an Austrian and Czech architect and influential European theorist of modern architecture. He was one of the most influential European architects of the late 19th century and was often characterized by his literary discourse that prefigured the foundations of the entire modern movement. As an architect, his influence is mainly limited to major works in his native Austria, and as a writer he had a great impact on the development of 20th-century architecture, producing a series of controversial essays that he developed in his own architectural style by denouncing ornament and a series of social ills.
