Revolutionary essays on design, aesthetics and materialism - from
one of the great masters of modern architecture Adolf Loos, the
great Viennese pioneer of modern architecture, was a hater of the
fake, the fussy and the lavishly decorated, and a lover of stripped
down, clean simplicity. He was also a writer of effervescent,
caustic wit, as shown in this selection of essays on all aspects of
design and aesthetics, from cities to glassware, furniture to
footwear, architectural training to why 'the lack of ornament is a
sign of intellectual power'. Translated by Shaun Whiteside With an
epilogue by Joseph Masheck
