Executed between 1945 and 1946, the document reflects the functionalist approach characteristic of the Bauhaus founder during his tenure in the United States. The plan details the spatial organisation of the residence, including the living room, dining area, kitchen, and garage, all arranged to maximise flow and efficiency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe drawing employs standard architectural notation, with precise lines indicating walls, doorways, and structural elements. Annotations provide specific measurements and room designations, maintaining a clean, technical aesthetic. The scale is noted as one quarter inch to one foot, a common convention for residential blueprints of the period. The composition is utilitarian, focusing on the clarity of the floor layout rather than decorative flourish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a primary document of mid-century residential architecture, this plan offers insight into the domestic design philosophy of Gropius. The layout prioritises the relationship between interior spaces and the exterior environment, a hallmark of his approach to modern living. The inclusion of the garage and service areas alongside the primary living spaces demonstrates the integration of modern convenience into the domestic sphere. This print provides a view into the drafting process of a significant architectural project, capturing the rigour and precision required in the development of a private residence during the post-war era.\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\/female-model-vilhelm-lundstrom-2\" 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;\"\u003eFemale Model - Vilhelm Lundstrøm — Vilhelm Lundstrøm\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/air-man-space-lyubov-popova\" 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;\"\u003eAir Man Space - Lyubov Popova — Lyubov Popova\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Walter Gropius","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58684646523215,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58684654289231,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58684654321999,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58684654354767,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58684654387535,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58684654420303,"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":58684654453071,"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":58684654485839,"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":58684654518607,"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":58684654551375,"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":58684654584143,"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":58684654616911,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Howlett-Residence-Ground-Floor-Plan_Poster_CompositorV1_1788609559110.jpg?v=1788610167","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/howlett-residence-ground-floor-plan-walter-gropius","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
