FIRST EDITION. 1 blank leaf + half title + TP + [7] = Acknowledgment + [8] = Frontispiece + 9-127 + 1 blank leaf. Large Octavo. First Edition (Fr/McG: #882).A Magnificent Record of Ludwig Wittgenstein the ArchitectThe book contains explanatory text along with a wonderfully wide variety of photos, floor plans and facsimile writings - including two large 'fold out' pages. Although he had no formal training as an architect, Wittgenstein did have a strong engineering background and even stronger artistic ideal. He exhibited this early in his career. When he first moved to Cambridge in 1911, he could not find anything simple enough to furnish his rooms, so he oversaw the design and construction of a complete set of furniture which met his standards. This same aesthetic rigor came strongly to the fore with this project for Margarete.The house itself was breathtakingly simple in its stark outlines and Wittgenstein complimented this on the inside with his strong aversion to any kind of superfluous ornamentation, As noted by Monk:The house was designed with little regard to the comforts of ordinary mortals. The qualities of clarity, rigour and precision which characterize it are indeed those one looks for in a system of logic rather that in a dwelling place. In designing the interior Wittgenstein made extraordinary few concessions to domestic comfort. Carpets, chandeliers and curtains were strictly rejected. The floors were of dark polished stone, the walls and ceilings painted a light ochre, the metal of the windows, the door handles and the radiators was left unpainted, and the rooms were lit with naked light-bulbs. [See our Catalog 24: Ludwig Wittgenstein: The Man and His Thought for a collection of 81 books and pamphlets by and about Wittgenstein.] Publisher's original stiff orange wraps with black lettering to the front cover and the spine which is lightly sunned.
