AbstractThis work is concerned with developing a theory of religion in modernity using the work of the architect and critic Adolf Loos. It is an inter-textual re-reading of Loos and critical readings of Loos, seeking to posit a developing Loosian theory as a possible new methodology for re-reading the tensions toward religion evidenced in modernity.

Abstract:
<p><em>El ornamento en arquitectura ha estado siempre envuelto de polémica, en muchos casos influenciada por una lectura banal de la famosa conferencia de 1908 de Adolf Loos titulada “Ornamento y delito”. Una lectura más profunda de sus textos y el análisis de su obra nos lleva a comprender su posición respecto al ornamento e identificar aquellos elementos que el maestro vienés estaba realmente criticando. No se trata tanto de una crítica directa al ornamento, como de la censura al uso inadecuado del ornamento. Los ejemplos del café Museum o su edificio en Michaelerplatz ilustran sus teorías, al igual que maestros coetáneos como Otto Wagner o Frank Lloyd Wright. Debemos despojarnos de nuestros prejuicios sobre el ornamento, para entender la postura de Adolf Loos. Una postura que no ha perdido vigencia en la arquitectura contemporánea. </em></p>

Abstract:
En me référant aux philosophes Charles S. Peirce et Ludwig Wittgenstein et à l’architecte Adolf Loos, je me propose de questionner le processus de création en architecture et en design dans l’esprit d’un souci de conservation et de continuité entre conception, fabrication et usage. La vue d’ensemble nécessaire à l’architecte, au designer ou à l’artisan d’expérience n’est nullement une pure construction de l’esprit. Il s’agit bien plutôt d’une pure présence de l’esprit à la réalité. Trouver la juste proposition architecturale pourrait, à bien des égards, ressembler à trouver le mot juste : une série d’essais, d’erreurs, d’idées et de propositions comparées entre elles. Un travail de la pensée qui rappelle le travail de l’artisan.

Abstract:
<p>Bien pudiera afirmarse que Adolf Loos y Robert Venturi junto con Denise Scott Brown, marcaron el inicio de dos de los movimiento arquitectónicos más importantes del Siglo XX. Sus escritos sirvieron para fundar los postulados del Movimiento Moderno y de la Posmodernidad. A pesar de tratarse de arquitectos tan diferentes, sus actitudes no son tan distintas, al defender una arquitectura honesta, cargada de mensaje y dispuestos a transgredir los dogmas pasados, al no considerarlos ya aptos para la sociedad de su momento. Permítasenos elegir dos ejemplos de cierto carisma. El proyecto de la casa para Josephine Baker sirve para ilustrar la posición de Adolf Loos. Se trata de un proyecto cargado de simbolismo, donde la propia fachada se convierte en mensaje. Décadas más tarde, Venturi &amp; Scott Brown construirían al otro lado del Atlántico la Guild House, el primer gran edificio etiquetado como posmodernista por su carga simbólica y el uso irónico del ornamento, en gran parte debido a la falsa antena. Estos proyectos del maestro austriaco y de Robert Venturi &amp; Denise Scott Brown sirven también para ilustrar su teoría, convirtiéndose de esta manera en manifiestos construidos. Teorías que hoy siguen perdurando.</p>

Abstract:
La segunda mitad del siglo XIX fue decisiva para el desarrollo de la cultura del diseño de producto. Tuvo especial importancia el debate en torno al principio del revestimiento, aunque no se trataba sólo de aclarar las relaciones entre forma y función, sino de establecer la importancia antropológica y cultural de la disciplina. Se desarrolló la idea de que había claras conexiones entre la manera en la que tratábamos los objetos de uso y el cuerpo humano, especialmente el femenino. Se estudiará esto analizando la transformación conceptual de las relaciones de la cultura con la naturaleza entre el “Elogio del maquillaje” de Charles Baudelaire y “Ornamento y delito” de Adolf Loos. [The second half of nineteenth century was decisive in the development of product design culture. It was especially important the debate about the clothing principle, although it was not only about clear up the relations between form and function but set up the discipline anthropologic and cultural relevance. It was developed the belief that there were clear connections between how we behave towards the objects of use and the human body, women’s primarily. This will be studied analysing the conceptual transformation of the relations between nature and culture from Charles Baudelaire’s “In Praise of Makeup” to Adolf Loos’ “Ornament and Crime”].

For samti­den var han fortrinsvis kendt, frem til færdiggørelsen af hans Looshaus på Mi­chaelerplatz i Wien i 1911, som en polemisk kultur- og kunstkritiker, der færdedes i kredsen omkring den indflydelsesrige redaktør, kronikør og forfatter Karl Kraus (1874-1936).

Abstract:
Adolf Loos’s famous essay, ‘Ornament and Crime’, decisively linked unornamented architecture with the culture of modernity and, in so doing, became one of the key formulations of modern architecture. To a great extent, the essay’s force comes from arguments drawn from nineteenth-century criminal anthropology. Nevertheless, Loos’s work has been consistently understood only within the context of the inter-war avant- gardes. In the 1920s, Le Corbusier was particularly enthusiastic in bringing Loos’s work to the fore, thereby establishing its future reception. ‘Ornament and Crime’ became an essential catalyst for architecture’s conversion away from the historicism of the nineteenth century to modernism. At the turn of the century, Loos’s essay already foreshadowed the white abstraction of ‘less is more’ architecture and the functionalist rigour of the International Style which would dominate the twentieth century.

Abstract What is it about ornament that made it so contentious for influential modernist thinkers and practitioners such as Adolf Loos and le Corbusier? According to Loos it was a sign of degeneracy and for le Corbusier best suited to 'simple races, peasants and savages'. By championing the use of ornament as a vital tool for 'resistance' in the sense that Michel de Certeau used the word the practice-led research featured in this article seeks to interrogate some of these myths. Rather than being a passive adornment to an environment the visual artworks presented here tested the potential of decoration and ornament to offer a resistive, critical interruption to everyday spaces. The particular space addressed was that of the workplace, with bespoke artworks being made for three different work-related locations.

Abstract:
Stonborough House is a house in the heart of the city of Vienna that was, apart from architect Paul Engelmann - a disciple of Adolf Loos, designed and constructed by philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein, at the suggestion of his sister Margaret Stonborough-Wittgenstein. In an attempt to connect Wittgenstein's philosophy with his work as an architect, the Stonborough House has often been named 'a visible form of his teaching'. Therefore, this paper intends to point out that translation into a substitute language of architecture became a meaningful way of addressing philosophical issues, and that the credo of Wittgenstein's philosophical ethics, which was restraint from the redundant, found articulation of its aesthetic value through architectural rhetoric.

Abstract:
Aldo Rossi offers a captivating account of the relationship between human life and material forms. Rossi says that he came to “the great questions”, and to his discovery of Ludwig Wittgenstein and Georg Trakl through Adolf Loos (Rossi 1982: 46). I will outline some connections between Loos, Trakl, and Wittgenstein that might help us to grasp the way in which Rossi’s assertive attitude concerning architecture gradually leans towards “forgetting architecture”. (The goal is not to try and justify how they might have influenced Rossi; rather the aim is to try to understand Rossi’s work with those connections as a backdrop; to outline a constellation of affinities.) The running thread being the internal relation between the object and the subject, i.e., “construction and the artist’s own life” (Lombardo 2003: 97). I will conclude by considering architectural form on the page, that is to say, in Rossi’s plans, “a graphic variation of the handwritten manuscript”, and drawings, “where a line is no longer a line, but writing” (Rossi 1981: 6), and finally by considering what he says about his architecture, namely, that it stands “mute and cold,” though it will still “creak” (Rossi 1981: 44), and give rise to “new meanings”.

Abstract:
The modernist architecture of the 1920s, often referred to by the terms "machine aesthetic" and "International Style," has been seen as antithetical to the vernacular. Focusing on Le Corbusier, this essay argues that, to the contrary, the vernacular played an essential role in the construction of modernist architecture, as conceptual model for a notion of modern vernacular-one as naturally the issue of modern industrial society, and as representative of it, as the traditional vernacular of common parlance had been of earlier societies. Le Corbusier arrived at this notion by layering on each other several discourses concerning regionalism, folklore, and the more complex concept of Sachlichkeit (factualness), developed in Vienna and Germany at the turn of the century by such figures as Adolf Loos and Hermann Muthesius.

Abstract:
<p>La activación de los sistemas arquitectónicos compactos, formados por unidades espaciales adosadas, especializadas, cualificadas, relacionadas entre sí en un contenedor definido y regular, requiere de herramientas específicas, capaces de suplir la carencia de espacios dinámicos, intersticiales y de comunicación. En la construcción del Raumplan, Adolf Loos desarrolla diferentes mecanismos relacionales. Entre ellos, destaca uno de gran capacidad dinamizadora del espacio interior. Su construcción parte de la evolución de las operaciones de fluctuación y frontalidad heredadas de la tradición arquitectónica para incorporar gradualmente alteraciones focales que conducen a la proyección diagonal. Mediante el análisis gráfico elaborado por el/la autor/a, se estudian las herramientas empleadas para la cualificación de este mecanismo perceptivo, que potencia la disociación entre el recorrido físico y perceptivo del observador.</p>
