the Bauhaus building by Walter Gropius, world heritage

the Dessau Bauhaus Foundation handles business and sees it as one of its tasks to make the thinking and the inheritance accessible to a greater audience. Since 1999, postgraduate education is available, but the new Bauhaus is more then just a museum or school; the institution is THE place to be for education, research and design of the present day urban development.
Walter Gropius really became famous with the transparent glass architecture of the Bauhaus building. He had thought up a three dimensional form that was way ahead of its time. The building did not in any way have a claim to eternal fame, but strangely it seems to have done just that.
Gropius designed the building as a well functioning cover that would bring the outside world in, and let the inside world out. His Bauhaus educational theory was 'art and technology, a new unity'.

"Laat ons samen het nieuwe gebouw van de toekomst scheppen" sprak architect Walter Gropius, die van 1919 tot 1928 directeur van het beroemde Bauhaus in Weimar en Dessau was.
