Continuation of the Bauhaus Theme - My Desk is a Canvas for Prints Created at 1:50 scale, this model showcases part of the front facade, bringing the essence of Bauhaus residential architecture to life. This building, designed specifically for photographer Avraham Soskin, boasts an innovative design that sets it apart from its peers. Divided into two asymmetrical wings, each with its own unique entrance and stairwell, this structure is a masterclass in functional elegance. The front wing, cleverly designed as the family home, features a flat roof adorned with a pergola, exuding a sense of horizontal balance. Rows of windows and elongated ventilation slits on the balconies work in harmony to create an air of sleek sophistication. In stark contrast, the large rear wing, invisible from the street, tells a different story. Designed in a local, industrial language, this section of the building boasts two floors and a basement that served as Soskin's photography studio. A true reflection of Bauhaus' emphasis on functionality and innovation, this structure is a testament to the power of design.
