Produced by the office of Walter Gropius and Marcel Breuer, the document provides precise technical specifications for the master bedroom furniture. The drawing includes plans, elevations, and sections, rendered with the clarity and rigour characteristic of the Bauhaus approach to interior design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Frank Residence, commissioned by Robert and Cecelia Frank, represents a significant example of International Style residential architecture in the United States. Gropius and Breuer, both former masters at the Bauhaus, applied their principles of functionalism and material honesty to every element of the home. The bedside cases, as shown here, utilise pear wood and integrated fabric panels, demonstrating a focus on clean lines and efficient use of space. The annotations specify dimensions, construction methods, and material choices, such as the use of plywood and metal strips, reflecting the architects' interest in industrial production methods adapted for domestic environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a technical document, the drawing reveals the collaborative nature of the design process. It includes revisions and notes from the associated architects in Cambridge, Massachusetts, alongside the stamp of the local firm, Ritchey and Mitchell, who oversaw the construction in Pittsburgh. The drafting style is precise, prioritising legibility and instructional accuracy over aesthetic flourish. This print offers a view into the meticulous planning required to achieve the minimalist appearance of mid-century modern interiors. It serves as a record of the design intent for a specific piece of custom furniture, capturing the intersection of architectural theory and practical craftsmanship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/bauhaus-building-dessau-east-west-section-walter-gropius\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eBauhaus Building, Dessau: East-West Section - Walter Gropius — Walter Gropius\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/bauhaus-preliminary-course-exercises-various-artists\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eBauhaus Preliminary Course Exercises - Various Artists — Various Artists\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Walter Gropius and Marcel Breuer","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58750455054671,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58750476976463,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58750477009231,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58750477041999,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58750477074767,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58750477107535,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58750477140303,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58750477173071,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58750477205839,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58750477238607,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58750477271375,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58750477304143,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Frank-Residence-Bedside-Cases_Poster_CompositorV1_1789149615465.jpg?v=1789150434","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/frank-residence-bedside-cases-walter-gropius-and-marcel-breuer","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
