그로피우스는 이상적인 주택 구조에 대한 비전을 제시한 적이 있습니다. "The floor plan... is the geometric projection of a spatial concept—namely, the circulation design within a house. Elevations and sections are the outcomes, not the starting points, of this circulation planning... The floor plan should therefore eschew contrived symmetry; instead, it features a free, fluid arrangement of rooms shaped by their functions, short and time-efficient circulation paths, and dedicated play spaces for children. There must be a clear separation between the living, sleeping and domestic work zones of the house. Finally, sunlight should be harnessed to good effect: bedrooms require the morning sun (facing east), living rooms should receive light from south to west, and the north side is reserved for storage rooms, kitchens, staircases and bathrooms."
"A dwelling should no longer stand like a fortress, nor mimic an ancient building with medieval-thick walls and an ostentatious, costly facade built for display. Instead, it should have a lightweight structure, rooms flooded with sunlight, and be designed for time-saving practicality and economic efficiency—its every function crafted to serve the inhabitants."
이는 그로피우스가 1931년 건축 포럼에 발표한 논문에서 언급한 내용입니다.
