[...]Czech Cubism was about triangles, crystalline shapes, and oblique angles-not about cubes at all. Instead of simply defining the edges of vaults and their connection to structural piers, the ribs take on an independent life, growing free of the architecture like tree branches. Kotěra's designs, like the Pavilion in the Exhibition of the Chamber of Commerce (1908) and the East Bohemian Museum (1910), project the monumentality of the architecture of the Vienna Secession. While key modernist architects admired the idea of a non-style, shorn of ornament and celebrating functionalism, which would culminate in Le Corbusier's house as "a machine for living," other conflicting impulses drove architectural design.
