Haus Auerbach, Modernist residence in Jena, Germany.
The structure features two intersecting cuboids with clean lines, white walls, and large windows arranged across three floors of living space.
Walter Gropius and Adolf Meyer designed this private residence in 1924 for physicist Felix Auerbach and his wife Anna during the Bauhaus period.
The interior color scheme, created by Alfred Arndt, remained intact through decades and demonstrates the integration of art within architectural spaces.
The building includes a rooftop terrace, glass-enclosed winter garden, and a laundry facility that utilized collected rainwater from an integrated cistern.
The residence represents the first private commission executed by Walter Gropius and the final collaboration between Gropius and Adolf Meyer.
