Site Description

The site is located on the corner between Gropius Allee and Pushkin Allee. This place is a junction between �ve streets, four of which lead to the main locations of the Bauhaus period: The Bauhaus itself, Master Houses, Laubengaug Houses and Cornhaus. The �fth leads to the city center and is the direction to Arbeitsamt and Torten Estate.

Concept Description

One of the peculiarities of the site is that it is the location of one of the listed building which was restorated recently. The ground �oor is used as a picture gallery. The other three �oors are residential but currently uninhabitant. As the building dates back to a later period than The Bauhaus and represents traditional architecture, it was included into a concept to underline the innovativeness of the Bauhaus. According to the program, which determines all the required spaces, the overall area of the visitors' center is 2600m2, 2000m2 of which is an exhibition area dedicated to the Bauhaus. According to the concept the exhibition space will be arranged in the form of timeline. The timeline will start from the period of Enlightenment showing the modernity of Saxony Anhalt, then it will give an introduction to the Bauhaus and will go up spirally to the year 1932, when the Bauhaus school was forced to leave Dessau. This time will be exhibited in the existing building, as was built in that period.
