来た日から10日間、雨、雪、曇だったがついに帰る日に快晴。バイバイリベレッツ。また来るよ！It was raining, snowing, and cloudy for 10 days from the day I arrived, but it was sunny on the day I finally left. Bye-bye Liberettes. I will come again!

配偶者から拙著が刷り上がって家に届いたとラインが来た。本屋に並ぶのは月末とのこと。設計人生の指南書。私を指南した参考書も紹介。マルクス、ニーチェ、ブルデュー、アレント、國分、小田部、上田、など。多くの若い人に読んでもらえればうれしいです。I got a line from my spouse saying that my book was printed and delivered to my house. I want to go home early and pick it up and see it. She says they will be lined up at the bookstore at the end of the month. A guide to design life. I also included a reference book that guided me. Marx, Nietzsche, Bourdieu, Arendt, Kokubun, Otabe、Ueda, etc. I kindly ask all of young people aiming to being an architect for reading it.

ロースはコルビュジエ同様色大好きだった。これまで白黒写真でしか紹介されないから皆ロースはストイックだと誤解している。と教えられた。
Loos, like Corbusier, loved color. Everyone has the misunderstanding that Loos is stoic because he has only been introduced in black and white photos so far. I was taught by Check teacher.

イェシュチェド山の山頂にあるテレビ塔とホテルカレル・フバーチェクの設計で1966～1973年に建てられた。連日天気が悪く町から見えず昨日車でやって来た。Built between 1966 and 1973, it was designed by the TV tower and hotel Karel Hubacek on the top of Mount Jested. The weather was bad every day and I couldn’t see it from the town, so we drove there yesterday.

我が家にはプラハ城の写真が飾られていた。４０そこそこの親父がILOの仕事で外遊した時のもの。何を感じたのか聞いておけばよかった。 My father put pictures of Prague Castle on the wall of his room. It was when my father, who was in his 40s, went abroad to work at the ILO. I should have asked him what he felt.

プラハにはロース最後の作品ヴィンテルニッツ邸がある。施主はミュラー邸を見て気に入り頼んだけありメインのリビング、ダイニング空間は、構成、サイズ共に酷似し、二本の柱とレベル差で分節される。Loos’s last work, the Winternitz House, is in Prague. The client saw Muller’s house and liked it, so the main living and dining spaces are very similar in configuration and size, and are articulated by two pillars and level differences.
