Haus Wittgenstein

Die Architektur Wittgensteins

Rekonstruktion einer gebauten Idee

August Sarnitz

The Stonborough-Wittgenstein House (1926–1928), designed by Ludwig Wittgenstein and Paul Engelmann, exemplifies radical modernism and structural clarity. Beyond Vienna, it engages broader cultural and architectural debates. The house reflects Margaret Stonborough-Wittgenstein’s emancipation, explores gender roles, and demonstrates Wittgenstein’s innovative approach, merging modern architecture with rigorous structuralism. Photographs by Thomas Freiler.
