Rudolf Steiner’s work as an architect began with an interior design of the hall for the annual conference of the Theosophical Society in 1907. Afterwards, a young student, Carl Stockmeyer, asked him how a building should be designed from outside in order to house such interiors. Having received these indications, he fashioned a model in the garden of his parents in Malsch near Karlsruhe, which was of a size that one could enter into it and walk around. This design later became the model for the anthroposophical assembly room built in Stuttgart, but was broken off during the National Socialist dictatorship in Germany.
