Marcel Breuer @dmyberlin Almost!

Because we know what’s coming up at DMY Berlin, we loved this quote from Marcel Breuer that we discovered in connection with the exhibition Marcel Breuer – Design and Architecture at Bauhaus Dessau

“The furniture, even the walls of rooms, are no longer solid, monumental, seemingly immobile, or even in-built. They are much more light, open, almost plotted in the room….”1

All will, hopefully, be clear by the end of the week!

Marcel Breuer. And a wall.
