  The Bauhaus Dessau, designed by Walter Gropius, was home to the Bauhaus Dessau School of Design from 1925 to 1932. The epitome of 20th-century modern design worldwide, it attracts some 80,000 visitors annually from Germany and abroad. In 1996, the building was declared a UNESCO World Heritage site. This volume shows, in over 80 unique photographs taken in the empty rooms immediately after the general renovation of 1996-2006, the transparency and lightness of an exceptionally sensate modern architecture, whose surprising and bold colouration debunks the myth of a white Modernism.nother.
