If you're not interested in functionalist architecture, you're likely to find the tour a little exhaustive. For fans, though, it is a thorough exploration of a faithfully restored architectural gem.

The Villa is certainly worth a visit if you are in Brno- it was beautifully restored and one of the most interesting aspects are the intricate mechanical workings- they had airconditioning and retractable glass walls!

I was first at the house in 1968 with my mother, a student in the first class Mies Van der Rohe taught at IIT (the Amour Institute) in Chicago.
