Adolf Loos’ Casa de los Tres Soles

Adolf Loos’ Casa de los Tres Soles is a notable example of early 20th-century modernist architecture, created around 1923 in Mexico. It reflects Loos’s ideals of simplicity, functionalism, and the rejection of ornate decoration. The house emphasizes clean lines, geometric forms, and refined materials, blending traditional Mexican elements with modern design principles. Its name, meaning “House of the Three Suns,” symbolizes a harmony with nature and light. The design showcases Loos’s belief that architecture should serve function and be free of excess ornamentation, making it a pioneering work in modern architectural thought.
