Bauhaus house
classic timeless living dreams

What does a Bauhaus style house look like?

When we speak about Bauhaus design movement today, different people understand different aspects of it. It should be noted that the Bauhaus in the narrowest sense was a school in Weimar, which was by no means only about architecture, but above all about the synthesis of art and craftsmanship. Bauhaus style house also refers to the furniture, colour scheme, fixtures and layout of a house.

The striking timbered houses made of timber and glass were the work of Manfred Adams, a pupil of the German star architect Sep Ruf in the sixties, who was particularly influenced by the Bauhaus style.

This is how the first HUF timbered houses were built in 1972 with a well-considered sequence of rooms, flowing transitions and a puristic and equally clear appearance.

What speaks for a prefabricated house in Bauhaus style?

The Bauhaus style and the HUF Haus have one thing in common: There is not one Bauhaus style and not one HUF Haus. Anyone who likes to do without frills and instead prefers clear forms and restrained designs will opt for a cubic timbered house from HUF HAUS, for example in a modern flat-roof design.

The surrounding skylight level and the floor-to-ceiling glazing create a look that looks elegant and timeless. The popularity of the Bauhaus objects, which proponents of architecture have certainly already visited in Dessau, the second school location after Weimar, is therefore probably timeless.

Did you know that HUF HAUS had already offered flat-roof houses in 1960, whose box architecture with many right angles resembles the exemplary Bauhaus master houses? The connections between HUF HAUS and the Bauhaus style can already be found in the history of the family business and culminate in the collaboration with the architect Manfred Adams, who shaped the face of the houses. The outer appearance of the HUF houses is still unmistakable today.
