Google Celebrates Walter Gropius Birthday

Happy birthday to Walter Gropius! Check out Google logo for Walter Gropius.

Google Logo for Walter Gropius' birthday

Find out who Walter Gropius is. He must be very famous to be featured as Google logo. When I lookup at Wikipedia, I found out that he’s born as Walter Adolph Georg Gropius (May 18, 1883 – July 5, 1969). Walter Gropius was a German architect and founder of Bauhaus. He’s the father of modern architecture.

It would be great if I can have my birthday featured as Google logo! Or maybe yours?
