Adolf Loos Works and Projects by Ralf Bock, and Philippe Ruault 1st Ed

About the Item

Adolf Loos: Works and Projects by Ralf Bock (Author), and Philippe Ruault (Photographer). Published by Milano Skira, 2007. 1st Ed hardcover with dust jacket. Adolf Loos (1870-1933) was a Viennese architect known for his radical building facades. The author reveals the sensuality of Loos's interior designs, demonstrating that Loos was not an architect of the "white modern movement," but rather, he fought against it. A careful analysis of Loos's ideology and oeuvre, this book features 30 existing projects in 160 extraordinary full-color images by the celebrated French photographer Philippe Ruault, who has completely rephotographed Loos's works. These new images offer different interpretations of Loos' interiors and bring him back to the center of contemporary architectural debate. The color photographs are supplemented by archival photos from the Loos Archive of the Albertina, Vienna, and a completely new set of project drawings. NPT Books, a division of Trent Antiques, has a large collection of used and out of print books on art, architecture, decoration and antiques with a focus on 1st editions, signed and limited editions.
