Facade - Climbing Monument (Bauhaus Glass Pavilion)

University/SchoolUniversity of California, Berkeley

Lead ArchitectZiyang Xu

This project aims to rectify Dessau's imbalance by creating visual and spatial connections between the pavilion and the new Bauhaus museum. The smoke tower becomes a focal point for repurposing old structures. Employing a vertical approach, the pedestrian passage links the urban landscape to the pavilion. Key elements, including a versatile stair and dynamic façade, shape diverse functions within the glass curtain-walled pavilion. This design offers an immersive experience, seamlessly integrating historical elements with modernity, and providing a compelling journey through space and time.
