The Ferdinand Baumann house, built in 1938 in Prague's New Town district, is a functionalist residence designed by architect Eugene Rosenberg. The building exemplifies the austere, machine-age aesthetic of early modernism, with its emphasis on clean lines and rational form stripped of ornament. Recognized as a cultural monument of the Czech Republic, it stands as a notable example of interwar functionalist domestic architecture in Central Europe.
