Clarens, Montreux

The first house designed by Loos was the Villa Karma (1904–6), Clarens, Montreux. Here an existing dwelling was entirely enclosed in a new one, consisting of a four-storey stuccoed house of classical simplicity, with a flat roof and recessed attic storey (completed by Hugo Ehrlich).
