Summary
A groundbreaking exploration of Bauhaus architecture reveals the innovative use of floor materials in the Dessau Master and Double Houses, built between 1925 and 1926. These designs were not merely aesthetic but also functional, reflecting the movement's experimental approach to construction. The study provides a detailed historical account of these floor coverings, offering unique insights into the material choices and craftsmanship that defined Bauhaus's modernist identity. This research contributes to the understanding of Bauhaus's influence on architectural innovation, particularly in its attention to detail even at the foundational level.
