Prior to leaving for the United States, Loos completed his studies at the Dresden College of Technology, where he was trained as an architect. In addition to his architectural training, Loos was also acquainted with the stone-masonry business. When Adolf was a child, his father owned a sculpting and stone-cutting workshop that 8 was located next to their house in Brunn, Moravia (now Brno, Czech Republic). After his father's sudden death, his mother successfully managed the business, but their relationship became increasingly tense.6 After graduating from school Loos traveled to the United States alone and without the support of his mother.
