The Bauhaus Dessau, designed by Walter Gropius and from 1925 to 1932 the headquarters of the „Hochschule für Gestaltung Bauhaus Dessau“, attracts around 80,000 visitors annually from Germany and abroad who are in search of the roots of the 20th century Modernism. Now the first book in which the UNESCO world cultural heritage site is introduced following its complete renovation is available. Featuring more than 110 black and white photographs, „Bauhaus Dessau“ presents the whole scope of architectural and artistic variety and quality of the building. The book sketches the history of the building, its architectural parts, the interior design created by the Bauhaus artists, as well as the functions of the building. „Bauhaus Dessau“ is well-suited as a companion for a tour through the building as well as a reference of individual details. In addition to the visual objects, the text also describes the work carried out in the former workshops and their most important products, because architecture, design and concept of the Bauhaus are inseparably connected to each other.
