Villa Tugendhat: Tour of UNESCO Masterpiece by Mies Van Der Rohe

[@marymccluer1630]

I had seen this home in other videos, but never in such detail. It was truly an amazing home...decades ahead of its time in innovation. What impressed me most was the glass window that lowered to serve as a railing. In that way, the room converted to an open-air balcony with a clear glass railing. Wow.

The team that meticulously restored this remarkable building published an amazing book chronicling all of the meticulous restoration steps. Tugendhat had really fallen into disrepair and the results are spectacular. A friend of mine purchased a copy during a visit and I have been trying to find a copy on line.

Thank you for this wonderful and thorough presentation. Mies' Barcelona Pavilion demonstrated a new kind of architecture, with a grid of chrome-plated columns punctuating an open, flowing space with free-standing partitions clad in stone. With the Tugendhat house, he showed that this kind of space conception could be integrated with traditional, enclosed bedrooms and service functions. Mies' attitude wasn't "out with the old, in with the new," but rather a more practical "new added to the old," a project of ongoing evolution, rather than revolution.

I visited the Villa summer of 1986. The renovation has left the house in pristine condition. I remember the house in pretty much similar condition but slightly rougher around the edges. But you knew this was a monumental piece of work. Still remember hanging on the ledge to take photo of the lowered 5m glass. The landscape in the back was very simple then.

Thank you for sharing- deep gratitude

[@Thomas1965K]

Great video - thank you so much!

[@DM-dq1mh]

Super video, looking forward the seeing new buildings 😀

[@carlosagell3094]

Amazing video! thanks! the technical basement must be mindblowing! 👏👏👏👏👏

[@bettinakohzer3334]

Chapeau for Mies van der Rohe

[@Jamesviolaofficial]

It's so deceptive from the street with so much hidden below the top level. Really interesting. As a note: I'm new the channel and I thought the voiceover audio wasn't synced to the speaker's lip movements properly at first. It took a few minutes until I realized it was an English speaker dub over. Just a little awkward at first, but I got it.

but ghastly music 🙉🙊🙈

Epic house , great video. But no “like”, because: 3 x 2 ads in a 20 minute educational video? Seriously?

[@ghassankanaan1767]

Great explained presentation ! 👍

[@AlanFranklin-p3t]

Please tell me where to find the bonus video, I'm desperate to see it!

[@franckm8740]

Very nicely done documentary. Thank you

[@nickidaisydandelion4044]

Ohh gosh what an amazing home.

[@bartweg1]

A 100 year old home which is better thought out, and has features we don't see in all those new "amazing" 20+ million dollar California homes. Amazing piece of architecture Mies van der Rohe has created.

[@mariaelenaandrade8412]

An amaizing analisis ,who is the presenter?,the villa is a masterpice!

[@adamgebrian5192]

Hi. Little known Czech ex-architect who dedicated his professional effort into geting other people interested in architecture and public spaces and the ideas behind it.

[@jpfloru8669]

Was the house not returned to the Tugendhat family? They live in Britain.

[@spiritooalized]

WHere is the bonus video?

[@beaucharles5333]

Thank you for your videos. Perhaps you can answer a naggng question. The Tugendhat and Mueller homes, built during the same years, have the same expandable dining table, with each additional ring (of different materials) accomodating the same number of guests. Who designed it? Representatives of each building claim the table originated there. What do you say to the coincidence?

[@Maximiliankovic]

Amazing stuff

[@jpfloru8669]

You should film in summer; the planting is part of the house.

[@tigerphid9677]

I've seen many photos of this house, but I did not know that it was in a normal neighborhood. That is interesting. Normally "important" houses are separate.

[@marcokoehler8832]

This district (Cerna pole) is very lucrative and it was already in 1930, so even some rich factory owners as family Tugendhat, couldn't buy the whole district. 😁

[@franchy1971]

I went there in 2014, It was closed for the public, still we took some pictures.

[@giupezio]

tks very much

[@21seashells]

The loud music ruins the video.

[@Laguna2013]

any drywall in there?

[@terrancearnold8530]

Brother What is up with your music?

[@epau9749]

2 architects inspired me in my work. Mies Van Der Rohe and Frank Lloyd Wright.

[@minniefontein1665]

Not Lecorbusier?

[@marceloalejandroganon3631]

Porque no coincide el sonido del relator con el video ? exitossss

[@leflake]

Porque esta doblado

[@miguelcroce-x9g]

More a restoration than a renovation. (Fortunately.)

[@janazelenkova5283]

[@LiebsteMama]

What an awful opening of a video. Being looked at from the side by an arrogant man with crossed arms and being told how ignorant I am not to know the property... Like a slap in the face.

[@canozmen9527]

"Less is More": Mies van der Rohe

[@Avocado740]

Shame abour the unnecessary music

[@likelikelikelikelikelike3971]

Great vid but the English over dubbing is just weird

[@Tatokala]

It would be more beautiful with some big trees surrounding.

[@anthonymatthews3698]

The loud, awful music between the monologue is so distracting from an other informative video. Why do people insist on doing that!?

[@biendarra1]

A house designed from a man with its psychical disease, by the experience of first world war. The architect is well known but his unknown. It’s a great question, why the architect word until now don’t see it. Why architects until now will educated in trhis way of architecture??? 😢😢😢😢

[@robbedontuesday]

These guys (Mies, Le Corbusier, Loos) really took Architecture seriously. Not like Ghery, Calatrava, Hadid and so many distorted minds.

[@TrintleJr64]

Agreed. Gehry is focused on spectacle. He's not actually thinking about spaces that change the way people live.

[@davidmdyer838]

IDK, just not a fan of his work. I wouldn't be comfortable living there. Even the furniture is very uncomfortable.

[@likelikelikelikelikelike3971]

Architect’s hubris over comfort and warmth. Sterile.

[@christopherbryjowski2882]

Coordination Mr architect, coordination ...your mouth is not following your voice. Impossible to watch

[@UPalooza]

Maybe look at the house?

[@MrPhotodoc]

Oh okay, it's a house.

[@iraklimaglakelidze7469]

This house is incredibly ugly, it doesnt fit the surroundings, the shape is disturbing and very unprotected from wind, rain etc. You can clearly see same type of architecture used in daily life, in our cities, but without mainteness like this one gets it turns out to be a mess. Flat roofs leak, exposed walls crack and giant windows get dirtier even easier than expected. These type of museum like heritage modernist buildings tend to trick you into beliving, that this white walls and windows are that easy to maintain and live. But in reallity it turns out that even 3 story house neighboring villa is more comfortable and maintainable than this. And if you think otherwise, well that's your choice and taste, I will just wish you luck living in such a cold uncozy enviroment.

[@xxxmarekxxx505]

SUPER!!!!

[@Remza_Obrva]

Very ugly house.
