Description

Available Nov. 15th through Jan. 2This modernist take on a mountain chalet was designed by Herbert Bayer, an eminent member of the Bauhaus art, design and architecture movement. Bayer, at the invitation of industrialist Walter Paepcke, moved to Aspen to design the Aspen Institute, the Aspen Meadows and a handful of residential properties. This home was the first to be designated by the City of Aspen as ''modern historic.''The three-bedroom, two-bath cedar-clad, residence exemplifies the fundamentals of the Bauhaus movement--simplicity, openness and efficiency, where form follows function.
