Kotěrova vila, Art Nouveau villa in Chrudim III, Czech Republic.
Description
Kotěrova vila is a residential building with Art Nouveau curves and flowing forms across its exterior. Its layout follows open concepts that bring daylight into every corner and optimize the relationship between space and function.
History
The house was built between 1908 and 1909 from a design by Jan Kotěra and Jan Šachl, two architects who shaped modern Czech design. Its construction happened during the peak years of Art Nouveau across Central Europe.
Culture
The house shows how Prague artists and craftspeople lived and worked in the early 1900s. Its rooms blend modern conveniences with traditional ideas about home and family life.
Practical
The building is protected as a cultural monument and sits in a residential neighborhood of Chrudim. Visitors should remember that it is a private home and can only be viewed from the outside.
Did you know?
The villa was designed by two of the most influential Czech architects of the time, who were known internationally and supported each other on this project. This partnership made the house a rare example of the most advanced architecture in a provincial city.
