Description

The architect perceived the innovations in architecture in the 1920s. We do not know when the house was built, but in comparison with the architetect's building in Teplice, it could have been built in the late 1920s.This is suggested by the tower, the terraces on the upper floors and the flat roofs. All other elements of the house are part of typical Prague apartment buildings of the 1900s and 1910s, such as the facade design, the type of casement windows and the house entrance with a cubist door frame.
