Meisterhäuser: layers of colours

Walter Gropius's 1925 Meisterhäuser in Dessau are the crystallization of Bauhaus ideas.  The use of colours in these legendary houses was unparallel.

Haus Moholy-Nagy/Feininger:





Haus Muche/Schlemmer:





Haus Kandinsky/Klee:





I've got too many pictures I wanted to post from Haus Kandinsky/Klee.   I'm going to include them in another post tomorrow.

Bauhaus Meisterhäuser

It was my third time visiting Bauhaus at Dessau this past summer.  A short walk from the Bauhaus campus are Walter Gropius's 1925 Meisterhäuser.  Out of the four masters' houses built, only three still stand.

Haus Moholy-Nagy/Feininger:




Haus Muche/Schlemmer:




Haus Kandinsky/Klee:



 
I'll post pictures of the interiors of the Meisterhäuser tomorrow.

I've got even more pictures from my visit to the Meisterhäuser today.  I'll post them at another time.
