House of Tzara, Dada poet, by architect Adolf Loos in his stripped aesthetic ideal

In 1926, the dada poet Tristan Tzara had the Austrian architect Adolf Loos build a house that sums up his architectural approach: the essence of modern architecture is not in the beauty of the elements that make up a building, but in the beauty of pure forms, the relationships that the volumes have with each other. This can be seen in the contrast between the lightness of the white second floor, hollowed out of a rectangular box, and the first floor in rubble.

Just to the left, at n° 13, it is the hotel of the cartoonist Poulbot acquired once the success came.
