Update for House of the 60sixties Walter Gropius

In order to reflect the spirit of Walter Gropius and the principles of the Bauhaus („form follows function“, reduction, material honesty and geometric clarity) in the outdoor facilities, the parking lot and the staircase, the design should be radically modern, functional and unadorned. Here is a concrete design concept that perfectly matches the clear architecture: 1. The entrance to the house (entrance area) Gropius used orthogonal (right-angled) lines and floating-looking elements to create lightness and structure. Materiality: Solid, smooth exposed concrete (exposed concrete class 4) or large-format, light grey concrete or natural stone slabs (without chamfered edges to create a continuous band). Shaping: A strictly straight, right-angled ascent. As the terrain rises, wide, flat block steps are suitable, which are perfectly flush at the sides. The steps can perhaps be easily built under (shadow joint) so that they appear to float above the ground „above ground“ – a typical Bauhaus motif. Handrail / Railing: Absolutely minimalist. A simple, slim handrail made of matte, ground stainless steel or black powder-coated round or square steel (inspired by the typical tubular steel furniture and window frames of the Bauhaus). No decorations, no visible welds. 2. The parking lot & the driveway A parking lot is a purely functional place. Gropius would not have hidden it, but rather arranged it graphically and integrated it into the overall concept. Flooring: Instead of rustic paving, large-format concrete slabs in 100x100 cm format or an anthracite/light grey, polished asphalt or mastic asphalt surface are suitable. If it needs to be seepable, then it should be strictly square turf grid or split concrete that maintains clear lines. Parking space limit: No playful lines. The boundaries of the parking areas can be achieved by embedded, dark basalt stones or narrow, flush steel bands in the ground, forming a graphic grid (like a drawing) on the ground.
