Story · Haus am Horn

You're standing at the Haus am Horn, a small white house with a big place in architectural history. It was the very first building based on the ideas of the Bauhaus, the design school founded here in Weimar in 1919. Take a look at the shape. A plain cube with a flat roof, and in the middle a taller block with windows up high. The neighbours promptly nicknamed it the coffee grinder. Can you see why?
