Using the images and plans of the Bauhaus and German Pavilion, discuss the importance of Wright for Gropius and Mies.

Frank Lloyd Wright was one of the most influential architects of the 20th century. Using the images and plans of the Bauhaus and German Pavilion, discuss the importance of Wright for Gropius and Mies. What do their buildings share with the Robie House?

Consider the way space is defined, the overall appearance of the buildings, the types of materials used, the relationship between the interior and the exterior, and the way the visitor encounters each of the structures.
