Háskova vila, Cultural monument in Jablonecké Paseky, Czech Republic.
Háskova vila is a three-story house with white walls and large windows positioned on a slope above Mšeno Reservoir. The L-shaped structure houses living spaces, bedrooms, offices, and a basement garage, with a rounded living section featuring a balcony.
Built from 1930 to 1931 for jewelry exporter Jaroslav Hásek, the house was designed by architect Heinrich Lauterbach who drew inspiration from the WUWA exhibition. The project brought contemporary European design principles to northern Bohemia during the interwar period.
The villa represents functionalist architecture principles of the Wroclaw school, combining modern design with practical living spaces in the northern part of Jablonec.
The house sits on a slope with views of the water, so accessibility may vary depending on weather conditions. Start your visit by exploring the surroundings and enjoying the view from the water side for the best perspective.
The building showcases aerodynamic functionalism, a design approach emphasizing lightness and flowing curves to create harmony with the natural landscape. This subtle integration into the surroundings makes it a rare example of this design movement in the region.
