Abstract

The toy closet for children's room of the experimental "Haus am Horn" in Weimar (1923) is considered the first true demonstration of the Bauhaus’s modernist principles in furniture construction. It epitomises Alma Buscher Siedhoff’s belief in the potential of design-for-children to effect change in society at large. This entry aims at enriching contents of the International Travelling Exhibition “MoMoWo - 100 Works in 100 Years” and it disseminates results of the database of the European project “Women's Creativity since the Modern Movement - MoMoWo” (co-funded by the Creative Europe Programme of the European Union).
