Laubenganghaus, Dessau, Modernist residential complex in Dessau, Germany
The Laubenganghaus features five three-story buildings with open corridors on the north facade, connecting six apartments per floor through exterior walkways and staircase towers.
Constructed between 1929 and 1930 under Bauhaus director Hannes Meyer, the buildings represented the first collective project of the Bauhaus architectural department.
The design incorporated shared garden courtyards, children's play areas, and kitchen gardens, reflecting Meyer's philosophy of prioritizing community needs over individual luxury.
Each 47-square-meter apartment includes a kitchen, bathroom, central heating system, and optimal sunlight exposure through south-facing living spaces and north-facing service areas.
The complex combines exposed brick facades with reinforced concrete lintels, featuring both wood and steel window frames that create a varied architectural appearance.
