Mimarlık Üzerine

Elinizdeki kitapta, mimarlık tarihinin belki de en güçlü yazarlarından biri, mimar Adolf Loos, olanca dürüstlüğüyle yaşadığı mesleğini tanıtıyor. Loos'un mimarlık üzerine yazdıklarının büyük bir bölümünü biraraya getiren bu derlemenin önemi ancak okunduktan sonra anlaşılabilecektir.

Bugüne kadar kulaktan kulağa aktarılarak tanınan Adolf Loos, artık “Süsleme suçtur” demeyecek dilimizde:
“On üç yıl önce bir uyarıda bulundum ve artık yeni süsleme icat edemeyeceğimizi bildirdim.

(Düşmanlarım bundan kalkıp benim her tür süslemeye karşı olduğum anlamı çıkartıyorlar, oysa ben sadece her tür taklit malzemeye karşıyım.)”
-Adolf Loos, Otto Wagner, 1911-

“Mies van der Rohe ve Le Corbusier gibi mimarlar yalınlığı ve denetimli lüksü ondan öğrendiler.”
-Rowan Moore, The Observer, 2011-
