Abstract

This study is to identify how sensual perception occurs according to the senses in the interior space of Adolf Loos's apartment and to examine its characteristics. For the study, 20 works are selected, with literature and images to identify finish material properties. The research was conducted by identifying the meaning of cladding and dwelling which are the main concepts of Ross, and then examining the sensual perception characteristics of Ross’s apartment construction at a visual and tactile level. The results are as follows: (1) The interior space of Adolf Loos’s apartment becomes the place where dwells are generated while constructing the bodily experience that synthesizes sensual perception. (2) Loos grouped public areas of interior space into a unit and set a symmetrical visual axis. The individual spaces of the unit combine the withdrawal and reflection with light/heat to form heterogeneous corners dialectically. (3) Loos integrates and strengthens the effects of visual perception through contaneous sensation. He uses contaneous sensation such as the light and warmth of the fireplaces and the fabric that light penetrate and creates “warm and liveable” spaces. And he approached material properties with a gender stereotype.
