The Master's Houses in Dessau, Germany, were once briefly home to some of the Bauhaus group's most influential protagonists, including Moholy-Nagy, Kandinsky, and none other than Gropius himself. When Dessau was bombed in early 1945, both the Directorâs House and Moholy-Nagyâs Master House were  reduced to rubble.
After several of the Dessau Mastersâ Houses â designed originally as an artistsâ colony â were restored in the 1990s, a debate began on the reconstruction of the two houses destroyed in the war.
In 2010, after consultation with the British star architect David Chipperfield, the decision was made to recreate the Master Houses of Gropius and Moholy-Nagy following a contemporary interpretation, rather than rebuilding them 1:1. The two houses have now been reconstructed on the basis of designs by the Berlin firm Bruno-Fioretti-Marquez, as innovative reductions and abstractions of the original houses.
This volume describes the chequered history of the Dessau Mastersâ Houses, presenting the reconstructed buildings for the first time in book form, with photographs by Armin Linke and Heidi Specker.
