BOOK


Tatra 77 and Villa Tugendhat represent masterpieces of the early 1930s, which testify to the world renowned design, automotive industry and architecture of prewar Czechoslovakia. The publication documents their first meeting which took place in May 2017.
Natural harmony of villa and car is celebrated by the unique series of photographs depicting the purity of shape and the highest level of craftsmanship. The accompanying chapters of the publication then shed light on the remarkable conceptual and historical context and the timeless message left by the creators led by Hans Ledwinka and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe.
The authors worked closely with architect Pavel Kasík, the world's leading expert and owner of the Tatra 77, architect Jan Hrubý Sr., former dean and prominent figure of the Faculty of Architecture at Brno University of Technology, architect Ivan Margolius, leading expert on the history of the Tatra brand and life of Hans Ledwinka and curator Radim Zátopek from Tatra Technical Museum in Kopřivnice. The graphic design was commented by Jan Němeček, co-founder of the renowed Olgoj Chorchoj design studio.
The content was approved by the director of the Tugendhat villa, Iveta Černá, who subsequently ceremoniously launched the book with the General Director of the National Technical Museum in Prague, Karel Ksander, in the autumn of 2019.
