Visible from the street; the inside is private.

In Ústí nad Labem, Czech Republic, the S-domy stands as a residential building constructed in 1901 by architect Franz Josef Arnold. The house exemplifies the stylistic tensions of early modernism, blending organic expressionism with the rational principles of New Objectivity—a combination that reflects the architectural ferment of the period as designers sought to reconcile expressive form with functional clarity.
