Though short-lived, the institution's contributions to modernist design, ranging from architecture to typography, were hugely impactful and birthed an entire generation of European artists. In this volume, Gropius provides a comprehensive overview of the Bauhaus' Dessau location from 1925 to 1932. With photographic documentation and preliminary sketches, Gropius details the architectural design of the new Bauhaus building and the associated Masters' Houses. The result is a detailed depiction of the design practice associated with the Bauhaus, as well as an insight into the design of the building itself.\u003cbr\u003eAs part of the publisher's ongoing \u003ci\u003eBauhausb?her\u003c\/i\u003e series, Lars M?ler has released a facsimile edition of Gropius' text translated into English with the original design and typography.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Walter Gropius\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3037786655\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783037786659\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lars Muller Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/31\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 7.30w x 0.70d","brand":"Walter Gropius","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44047636922623,"sku":"9783037786659","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_531cc5bd-8d19-491a-912c-650bced36245.jpg?v=1684991358","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/walter-gropius-walter-gropius-9783037786659","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
