GROPIUS HOUSE - RENEWING A CLASSICWWGD? (WHAT WOULD GROPIUS DO (NOW)?)
Form follows function
This is the basic Bauhaus tenet. The Gropius House, iconic in its simplicity and use of industrial elements, was designed by Walter Gropius in 1938 for himself, his wife and his daughter. It contains 2300 square feet of functionality and sophistication, yet quite unpretentious in its character. A modern family of 5 has decided to call Gropius House “home” - and meeting the challenge to retain its history while employing the traditions of the Bauhaus using today’s newest materials will be the way to Gropius House new future. It prompts one to wonder, with the evolution of building materials over the last 75 years - What Would Gropius Do to make this space a home to a new generation?
