Description | In Prague Loos gave precise instructions to Kurt Unger ( plan 152) to draw this plan for Dr. Fleischner who wanted to emigrate to Israel. In spring 1932 Dr. Fleischner tells Loos that he will first go to Jerusalem for two years and then build the house. The house seems to be built in Haifa in1938, not like it was designed for project 152 but with a flat roof and plastered walls. In this house for a doctor, there is a large practice at home, but totally separated from his private life. Another difference with house 152 is that its veranda is here a waiting room for the patients. However there are no photographs of the house that was built, so we cannot verify the changes. Perspective drawings that we have reconstructed give a good picture of the quality of the house. |
