The Last House by Adolf Loos is a unique project that celebrates the 150th anniversary of the birth of the influential Czech architect. Commissioned by František Müller for his daughter Eva, the house is a low-cost accommodation suitable for both working-class families and management. The all-wooden, cube-shaped structure is painted in a bright green colour and is based on the landmark principle of Loos’s architecture known as Raumplan.
The project is being developed in cooperation with the Faculty of Architecture of the Czech Technical University in Prague and is based on Loos’ descriptions, floor plans and old articles. The house will be built on a plot of land right next to the National Technical Museum on Prague’s Letná plain and the foundation stone will be symbolically laid on Tuesday evening. If all goes according to plan, the house should be finished next year.
