It was interesting to see
how Loos’ architecture had changed through time, He was someone who managed to
very slowly push the boat out into what architecture has become today by
inspiring people such as Corbusier, which really has an impact on how the
architectural world is now. He went out of the box and pushed the boat out
further than it had been pushed before. Internally, things were very minimalist
which had previously not been explored. Open plan living was formed with
different ceiling heights and large open spaces.
The way someone had to
move through his space was very controlled, directing the viewer into a
straight path through the space. After the war, Loos had a new outlook on his
work, combining classicism with irregular windows.
Loos saw architecture as
a form of art. He broke the mould that no one had dared break before. Using
deliberate artistic gesture.
