Parole nel vuoto by Adolf Loos

Testo fondamentale per capire non solo il pensiero di Loos sull'architettura ma anche per riflettere sul fatto che esistono molte persone che hanno il titolo di architetto sul loro biglietto da visita, ma che non sanno nulla di architettura. Un testo ancora oggi attualissimo. In omaggio a questo testo, e sopratutto a Loos, ho intitolato il mio BLOG "Words in the void" http://adrianodangelo.blogspot.com/
