presidential campaign democrats say they need the files to identify any conflict of interest. and owing says a piece at the heart of the capital i'm in berlin visiting the bauhaus. one reason why it's so quiet right now is that the museum is closed for renovation. the bauhaus school was founded in one thousand nine hundred nineteen and next year will markets first centennial what better time to retrace its footsteps through berlin how did the bauhaus quite possibly history's most influential modernist school shaped germany's capital. bauhaus and what was that like and

what's still remains that's what i want to point out today through arts architecture and chocolate. also on the show the locals recommendations for cork and ireland. our viewer video will take us on a tour through cambodia. and will explore a powerhouse unesco world heritage site. for limbs bow-wow so he has set to remain close for a few more years due to extensive renovations in the meantime cents can still get their fix at a small outpost in the contemporary powerhouse that he and this landmark retail store and the district of shall open book here you'll not only find a carefully curated shop with iconic design products there's also plenty of

information on the history of the buy. oh so he. pays to klavan shows me plans for the new archive. a large glass tower by the friend will certainly make it more visible. last night what makes the bauhaus so relevant even a hundred years later down the halls. as a team of just powers as well house is a fascinating topic because i knew him and his intimately linked to german history and as i intend now in light of the upcoming bauhaus anniversary we have the opportunity to shine a light on its role in impact of you for from take for example the last thirty years of research on the role of women or how about how students and masters fared in the third reich but we can now bring these topics into the open and talk about why we are so interested in the interviewer period. we can talk about its

optimistic elements and where it might have failed in the exchange between society and creativity you've got all these topics are related to t.v. two dozen a list in devised as powerhouses grew and. before continuing to follow in the footsteps of the bauhaus here in berlin i want to give you guys a brief overview of the legendary schools evolution and how it came to travel from death south to finally end up here in berlin. the bell house school of design and architecture originated in the university town of weimar in the early twentieth century. here architect of. merge the academy of arts and the school of arts and crafts into one institution his aim was to join art with craftsmanship renowned artists like the painters

fuzzily convincingly and paul playing soon joined together they pioneered a new language of colors and forms. the bauhaus design came to be known for its functional and elegant aesthetics it was meant to improve people's day to day lives . weimar's house on horn was the first building following the bauhaus design its cubic shape is distinctly minimalist in a. nine hundred twenty five weimar stopped funding bauhaus the school relocated to the industrial city of the s.l. hear about house engineer who go young because design things like gas heaters and aircraft. at first i was happy to host the bauhaus school and even afford it it a brand new building. to feel a desert many people into so were a bit shocked they've never seen architecture like this before it was an entirely new approach. was. next door typical power house housing was built for the

professors or masters as they were called their uniform exteriors belies the varied interiors it ranges from bright and colorful to white minimalism depending on what the inhabitant preferred. even the furnishings were created by bauhaus designers. does so commissioned by house architect. to draw up plans for the city's new unemployment agency. in one thousand nine hundred twenty eight he was succeeded by harness my own as about house director he oversaw the construction of death sounds five houses with balcony access for low income residents people's needs over luxury mansions but in one thousand nine hundred thirty two the nazis drove the bauhaus out of tests out its last director meese found a hole or oversaw the moved to berlin there it was shut down by the nazis again

bauhaus in germany was gone but not forgotten. people had to wait until after world war two to see former bauhaus architects bring their ideas back to germany not far from the famous bottom up lots you'll find another bauhaus related construction site that no you're not denying that levee built in one thousand nine hundred sixty eight and ninety nine. last director not fundable in twenty eighteen this icon of classic modern architecture turned fifty the design definitely stood the test of time but updated safety and conservation all requirements for things to get a bit of a facelift. there's lots to do repairing damages installing a modern ac this is the first overhaul the nine hundred sixty s. museum has ever undergone and it is much needed. the noya not sonali was

designed at least fundable was architecture firm in chicago the former powerhouse director had emigrated to the united states in one nine hundred thirty eight but fond of always plans were originally drawn up for an entirely different project. but fewer coolbaugh field designed a building for the record company in cuba with a glass hallway in the basement for the administration because they never followed through with the plans because the cuban revolution happened occurred he had to leave the island. because he couldn't construct that the plan was basically shelved you come to the den from the road got the berlin commission and adopted the plans to the new project you have to go for in the. construction began soon after one thousand nine hundred sixty five. by now an old man traveled from the united states to berlin to celebrate the laying of the first stone the project was close

to his heart. i dedicate this to the lights of the people. and service of the arts on the minds. of. one thousand two hundred tons still room for post a major challenge it had to be lifted very slowly respond or watched carefully from his car. recalls the moment. he was a grandson one of the cars they drove on the neat the roof. and truly relished watching this vast new space take shape it was a special moment for him. unfortunately he was unable to attend the museum's inauguration in one thousand nine hundred sixty eight misspent or passed away in one nine hundred sixty nine the noir not sonali gallantly soon became a major architectural landmark in berlin and a cultural hotspot. is

a cop along this combination of glass stone and steel as exemplary bears testimony to and marks the culmination of a long process of designing open spaces is often one responded always grandson no one inherited the rights to the building he now ensures that his grandfather's architectural legacy is preserved. stored that made him proud to be able to build a structure like this in his hometown. of to buy understands. the restoration of the noire not sonali gallery is said to be completed by twenty twenty. work on the line that he will still take a while in the meantime you can visit another free agent by meets fundable in the whole engine house district and nine hundred thirty three country houses built for the owner of a print shop. in your view what makes this house so special. this

is well i don't know about you but most people tend to feel ease here with the large windows create a feeling of a vast open space of freedom and openness by. the inside is flooded with light it has beautiful proportions all of this creates a distinct feeling. that's why i ask you how you felt earlier when visitors come they tend to just feel good i mean this was a master at creating well proportioned spaces. better what is the house used for today i see some pictures on the wall is it a gallery space. yes it's mainly used to exhibit modern art buildings like this by muse funder or are grand and create spaces where so much can happen here it can be transformed with each exhibition. the whole think of

a moment and also look for. and we deliberately look for people who fit the building and match muse unique style. with some inequality right now we have works by sebastiaan on display he's a photo and video artist. and as you can see his works take a humorous approach to furniture designed by me is. this property is shaped like a square of means have this house built on the northeastern edge of the square in order to have a large garden. as well you can see that neighboring houses were built in the middle of their respective properties as part of. the flats is another example of his special talent for cleverly arranging buildings on a plot along the border of them going through. a country

house with you. yard in the middle of berlin not bad. i don't know about you but i just can't get enough of this green that's why we're hopping on over to ireland the emerald isle and this week's nina local our viewer john kennedy is taking us on a tour of its home town court. fights ago called kick welcome to cork as we say in the gaelic language i'm john kennedy i want to welcome you to cork ireland's real capital city. cork it's going to mazing up mysterious a young city student city great pubs friendly people on the banks of the beautiful river leaf. so this is one of vikings from the city here the river league

now over a thousand years ago this eerily was a marsh containing many small islands and that's why the vikings from the city because from here they could trade and raid with the interior and cork the name comes from gaelic. meaning marsh or swamp. not a thing the special about cork is cork is got twenty nine bridges on the river the doctor has only got twenty four so that makes all those the venice part of. the sentence church was built in the eighteenth century built on the site of a much older medieval church not only is it a beautiful church to visit but it's the act of church sunday services held here every week and the best thing about sentences. you get to ring the bells. you choose the song was played by all the numbers and just listen to the song.

here in st john's not only can we get to ring the famous bells we also have a terrific view of cork city. so this is where you get the show your costs in this market famous for its locally produced and imported organic produce but it's much more than that i come here to buy my fresh fruit and vege however i also come here for the chance to catch up on the gossip. so it was market day it's right back to the eighteenth century it's called the english market because back then the only ones allowed to own stalls and there were the protestants were known as the english and the name of the english market.

was you know if you're very busy today every dark know it's a silver lining in every survey learning is dark so. what's the best thing about the english market it's the sights and sounds it's the smells you can smell you can sense where the food comes from it's like having the whole world right here in cork . already finished doing cork what else but in the pub this is where you meet genuine core people. and i can assure you when you're in the public cork you always have a point to beamish and you're never alone so. bounce architects and contemporary innovators built a number of housing projects in berlin known as the berlin modernism housing estates these subsidized homes are unesco world heritage site one example is the

more horseshoe estate what is the essence of this estate it's got the motto back then was lights air and song for all of us. the idea was to get people out of their crimes tenements out of their dark backyards and build spacious the states close to nature that's what happened here. we are standing in front of the horseshoe estate includes like the realisation of better idea. because if new residents were welcomed with open arms or welcome this is the home of the new man and there is fresh air and social encounters are part of the package. going all of us that link and there seem to be lots of parallels to the bauhaus movement here is that really the case you seem as well. as guns under this is the sort of the one nine hundred twenty seven guard was well connected enough to pursue the same idea is. strictly speaking it's not about

a house architect you know they're taught or studied there but he played a role on housing. while to gropius he was a main figure in the german association of craftsman and the architectural collective. but he also realized his own ideas here. because it's art. can you give me an example. it was i don't know it's how it's job to create housing for the masses so the idea was to build affordable worker homes so they created standardized houses. on hot potato it was a master at using small variations in extravagant colors to break up any monotony and as a top people. know to me of course. modern architecture helped chamberlain as we know it today if you want to see another original bauhaus construction you should consider a trip to neighboring brandon book and we're now about an hour's drive from here in about how second director had his mind designed

a trade school alongside other powers buildings environment and death so it's considered a unesco world heritage site. in the late one nine hundred twenty s. i miss my aunt the second bounce house director and his colleague constant value set out to design a trade union school that would provide an ideal setting for learning. today almost one hundred years after its completion the impressive building still fascinates visitors young and old. nothing to. my head like this group of students that. you know if you work hard we're here today to gather inspiration for videos and familiarize ourselves with the bauhaus style with all of my. one typical bauhaus

aspect here is that this complex was focused on the role architecture could play in facilitating learning all rooms were built with the outdoors in mind. concerns with some tell us something about this boathouse more of this water. that's once you know about what you did so ask don't think of it was very it was built in one thousand twenty eight and its prime purpose was to convey education and that was done quite effectively because teachers and students alike felt a sense of freedom thanks to its beautiful natural surroundings and the space and nice rooms are provided if you cry of joy or friend's name on. the building complex was meant to encourage communal learning and living.

the school is full of incredible features that you often only notice at second glance. the students can actually get to all right now next to the gym. it has a really nice feature the windows slight open so in the summer they can be fully opened first and that way the gym feels like it's outdoors even i was actually inside. yeah. when you're maybe it's when you look around you can see clear materials. you know paintings or ornaments just pure functionality. for sure no need to. understand could you picture going to school here. yes the memorial is situated nicely and i was nearby where you could go shopping at locations nice

you have many options for spending your leisure time i could picture going to school here. today true to the bauhaus spirit the chamber of crafts uses the building for vocational training. i'm still at the horseshoe estate in berlin just like me you're probably wondering what these houses look like on the inside when bush still shows me one of them. it's been restored to the original nineteen twenties designed today you can rent it as a vacation home. this is typical furnishing from the weimar republic. not it has a few modern touches like the slump or some of the earliest tubular steel furniture produced in death so. that's all good. time now for one of your travel videos this week and we can if you know that he shared

his journey through combo deal with us he started in the capital phnom penh headed to the coast and then man as a way to ko tons are in the so called rabbit island oddly enough you won't find any rahman's there but you will catch and nice beautiful sunset. every day for you.

in berlin there's plenty of the bauhaus legacy to discover often it tends to hide in plain sight. chocolate factory isn't just a must for anyone with a sweet tooth it's also a place where you can experience original bauhaus interior design your highness one of the first masters designed in one thousand nine hundred twenty eight. how did mr iton come to design the stores interior. it and my grandfather knew each other personally by the. boat sailed on lake van zyl in the

future little boats because that's how they got to know each other. and mr holman just said hey i have a shot i want to design my interior or what happened to. my grandfather built this in one thousand twenty seven twenty eight miles far as i know professor it to not only designed the shop but also greatly contributed to the entire house i was as but a guitar comment often do people still come to look at the design or do they make. mostly come for the chocolates only law. must come for the chocolate lord but some are also interested in the architecture and are listed in several architectural guides for them so people want to see that tonight with one board on . it's design isn't the only thing historical about your shop your chocolate is to what something i shouldn't miss. recommender specialty chocolate. there's only one other manufacturer in germany that makes this kind of chocolate

mostly what it's produced industrially. ours is made by hand you should try it. the bows only survived a couple of months and were led by the architect. director a still manage plenty of traces throughout the german capital really excited to see what next.
