As the collection grew, a dedicated museum building was planned on the Rosenhöhe in Darmstadt but was prevented by local politics. In 1971 the Bauhaus Archive moved to temporary accommodation in Berlin. The original plans were modified for the site location beside the Landwehrkanal and not much of Gropius' original 1964 design remains apart from shed roof silhouette. The changes to the plan were carried out by Alex Cvijanovic and Berlin architect, Hans Bandel.The Bauhaus Archive collects & displays art pieces, items, documents and literature which relate to the Bauhaus School of architecture
