Walter Gropius – Bauhaus Building

The Bauhaus Building was built between 1925 and 1926 in Dessau, Germany. Gropius wanted to take a different approach with this school building by incorporating influence from his prior designs with new industrial materials such as reinforced concrete. His fresh approach can also be seen by the geometric, flat roofs. He wanted this building to present the idea of a school, however the glass curtains allow for a vibe leaning towards a well-lit experimental laboratory for new technologies.
