In Prague during the years leading up to World War One an unusual and distinct style of architecture was created. Developed by a small, radical group of young architects motivated by desires to create architecture that originated from artistic imagination alone, free from external influence. Tragically short lived; only a few examples exist of this idealistic and unique architecture.
