Summary:

"The 'Haus am Horn', the first and only work of Bauhaus architecture in Weimar, is an early example of New Building in the Weimar Republic. Built especially for the first Bauhaus Exhibition, in 1923, it has been part of UNESCO World Heritage since 1996. The modernist experimental house, with furnishings, textiles and lighting designed collectively by the Bauhaus workshops and ultra modern domestic applicances, comes back to life in richly illustrated detail."--Back cover.
