I've been a big fan of bauhaus architecture for some time, and always wondered what it was like to head inside (most photos of course being from the outside. I tried to convince my mom to take me to the Farnsworth House when we went to Chicago, but it was too out of the way.
At any rate, this and a Dutch video tour I found once of the Rietveld-Schröder House in Utrecht have been the best I've seen on the internet showing the interior of a modernist designed private residence, and Mies is of course one of the best. I hope I can find something on Breuer at some point, because he is also a favorite of mine. The cantilever chairs in the dining room are classic Mies van der Rohe.
