The Essence of Less

"A Photographic Dialogue with the Bauhaus Legacy"

“The Essence of Less" is a series that explores the timeless dialogue between architecture and perception, tracing modernism from the Bauhaus Masters’ Houses in Dessau to Mies van der Rohe’s icons in Berlin and Barcelona. Each frame is a meditation on space, an encounter with stillness, precision, and the enduring beauty of simplicity.

The Bauhaus Masters’ Houses in Dessau are not merely buildings; they are manifestos in concrete, light, and proportion.

Walls, windows, and shadows become protagonists in a play of abstraction. The camera lingers on the dialogue between material and immaterial: the cool tactility of concrete against the immaterial glow of light refracted in soft blue. Here, geometry is never static; it bends perception, shifts scale, and opens portals into silence.

By framing fragments, these photographs echo the Bauhaus ethos of unity between art and architecture.

Each image is an invitation to pause, to recognize how absence shapes presence, how structure hosts imagination, and how simplicity carries profound depth.

In Barcelona, the Mies van der Rohe Pavilion speaks in whispers of marble, onyx, and glass. More intimate in scale, it embodies the same radical clarity: a place where walls float, reflections multiply, and material itself becomes an element of light.

Like the Masters’ Houses, it is less a building than a meditation on proportion, rhythm, and perception.

These photographs capture not only the aesthetics of iconic modernist architecture but also the essence of its philosophy, clarity, reduction, timeless form. Each piece is both artwork and cultural document, offering collectors a fragment of architectural heritage transformed into visual poetry.

Limited in edition and crafted with precision, the series bridges history and contemporary vision, making it a lasting investment in the dialogue between art, design, and modernism.
