{"product_id":"howlett-residence-elevation-framing-walter-gropius-1","title":"Howlett Residence Elevation Framing - Walter Gropius","description":"\u003cp\u003eAn original architectural elevation and framing detail drawing for the Howlett Residence by Bauhaus founder Walter Gropius.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis architectural drawing provides a technical view of the Howlett Residence in Belmont, Massachusetts, designed by Walter Gropius. As a primary figure in the Bauhaus movement, Gropius brought a rigorous approach to residential design, prioritising functional clarity and structural honesty. This document captures the east and west elevation framing, alongside specific construction details that define the building's skeletal form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe drawing reflects the methodical nature of mid-century architectural practice. It displays the precise measurements and structural annotations required for construction, illustrating the transition from conceptual design to physical reality. The lines are clean and purposeful, typical of the drafting standards employed by The Architects Collaborative (TAC), the firm Gropius established after moving to the United States. The inclusion of specific scale notations, such as the 1\/4 inch and 1 1\/2 inch to 1 foot ratios, demonstrates the technical rigour applied to the project.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor those interested in the history of domestic architecture, this print offers a view into the process behind the mid-century modern home. It documents the structural logic of the Howlett Residence, showing how the design intent was communicated to builders. The composition is utilitarian, focusing on the clarity of the framing systems rather than aesthetic flourish. This piece serves as a record of the collaborative efforts involved in realising Gropius's vision for American residential architecture during the post-war period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/de\/products\/female-model-vilhelm-lundstrom-2\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eFemale Model - Vilhelm Lundstrøm — Vilhelm Lundstrøm\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/de\/products\/air-man-space-lyubov-popova\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eAir Man Space - Lyubov Popova — Lyubov Popova\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Walter Gropius","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58709725184335,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58709748253007,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58709748285775,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58709748318543,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58709748351311,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58709748384079,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58709748416847,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58709748449615,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58709748482383,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58709748515151,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58709748547919,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58709748580687,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Howlett-Residence-Elevation-Framing_Poster_CompositorV1_1788828750902.jpg?v=1788829800","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/de\/products\/howlett-residence-elevation-framing-walter-gropius-1","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
