Thank you all for looking, your comments and your interest.

 

Georg is quite right. This is the central building of the Siedlungsgenossenschaft Freidorf in Muttenz, near Basel, in Switzerland, built in 1924. It was designed by Hannes Meyer of Basel who joined the Baushaus movement in 1927 and was to become the second director of the Bauhaus in 1928.

 

Since we - the inhabitants of the project - are inordinately proud of our Freidorf, I took the liberty and boasted a bit about the building being Bauhaus. However, the Freidorf project certainly was material to his becoming Master in the Bauhaus movement.
