Georg Muche wurde am Bauhaus „archipeintre“ genannt. Neben der Malerei interessiert er für Architektur und entwarf das Haus am Horn in Weimar.

Adolf Meyer was Walter Gropius’s right-hand man. As early as 1910, they jointly created the Fagus Factory. The experimental single-family home Haus am Horn was built for the first Bauhaus exhibition, in the summer of 1923 in Weimar.

The then Bauhaus director Walter Gropius built the Auerbach house, his first private home, in 1924. The villa in Jena, realized in collaboration with Adolf Meyer, is one of the most important testimonies to the beginnings of the Bauhaus.
