<p style="text-align: justify;">In his later works architect Feliksas Vizbaras created a modernist villa of quite expressive abstract shapes. Although the building can hardly be compared against prime examples of Western European residential houses of modernist aesthetics, in Lithuanian context, it was one of the most modern objects of its kind built in the temporary capital during the interwar period.
