Understanding and Analysis of Villa Muller (ARCH 1201 Poject 1 Artifice)

Villa Muller by Adolf Loos

Due to its open situation, on a slope between two streets, this house has an introverted character. The main private outside space is thus on the roof.

Adolf's Raumplan idea: Design for space not for plans.
many levels in one story

Adolf played a tricky game with us. Villa Muller is simple outside but abundant inside.

Comparison

Frank Loyd Wright's Fallingwater
Adolf Loos' Villa Muller

While Frank Lloyd Wright was perfecting the seamlessness of the transition from inside to outside, Loos was deliberately keeping the public outside and the private inside of his houses as separate as possible. "The building should be dumb outside and only reveal wealth inside." Outside, the Villa Muller is distinguished by ts cubic shape, with flat roof and terraces, its irregular windows and its clean ,white facade.
