In 1923, Gropius designed one of his most famous works, door
handles, now considered an icon of 20th century design and often
listed as one of the most influential designs to emerge from the
Bauhaus. Gropius fled Germany in 1934 due to the rising power of the Nazi Party, and lived and worked in Britain, at the Isokon project, and then, from 1937 to the United States, where his own house, the Gropius House in Lincoln, Massachusetts, was influential in bringing International Modernism to the US. Gropius did not like the term: "I made it a point to absorb into my own conception those features of the New England architectural tradition that I found still alive and adequate" Gropius and his Bauhaus protιgι Marcel Breuer both came to Cambridge, Massachusetts to teach at the Harvard Graduate School of Design and collaborate on the company-town Aluminum City Terrace project in New Kensington, Pennsylvania, before their professional split. In 1944, he became a naturalized citizen of the United States. |

In 1945, Gropius founded The Architects' Collaborative (TAC) based
in Cambridge with a group of younger architects. The original
partners included Norman C. Fletcher, Jean B. Fletcher, John C.
Harkness, Sarah P. Harkness, Robert S. MacMillan, Louis A. MacMillen,
and Benjamin C. Thompson. TAC would become one of the most
well-known and respected architectural firms in the world. TAC went
bankrupt in 1995. Gropius died in 1969 in Boston, Massachusetts, aged 86. Today, he is remembered not only by his various buildings but also by the district of Gropiusstadt in Berlin. the Fagus Works, 19101911, Alfeld an der Leine, Germany the Bauhaus, 19251932, Dessau, Germany the Gropius House, 1937, Lincoln, Massachusetts the Aluminum City Terrace housing project, 19421944, New Kensington, Pennsylvania the Harvard Graduate Center, 19491950, Cambridge, Massachusetts (The Architects' Collaborative) the University of Baghdad, 19571960 the John F.
