Adolf Loos

Biography

Quotes

  • Architecture arouses sentiments in man. The architect's task therefore, is to make those sentiments more precise.
  • The work of art shows people new directions and thinks of the future. The house thinks of the present.
  • Does it follow that the house has nothing in common with art and is architecture not to be included in the arts? Only a very small part of architecture belongs to art: the tomb and the monument. Everything else that fulfils a function is to be excluded from the domain of art.
