welcome to this edition of your own max which this time around focuses on aka texture and and here are two of today's topics. snouts how design classics get modern make over and. been funded and you project cycles plastic waste into kind of full top. one hundred years ago a very special school was founded the bauhaus its architecture design and art found fans around the globe the bauhaus school was open for just fourteen years but that was long enough to create a form that still influences our lifestyles today and we take a brief look back at how it all began. the powerhouse school was founded in weimar in one thousand nine hundred architect about to go peters recruited the most famous artists of the time six years later the power house moved to. the school

building itself stood for a new kind of architecture functional and unadorned the principal form follows function the result revolutionary ideas that transcended the boundaries of design painting and architecture powerhouse buildings can be found all over the world as here in tel aviv and our house furnishings are now design classics. this folding chair was designed in one thousand nine hundred twenty seven and those in the know recognize it as a classic by design that must have boy and at first glance this chair also looks like the original but look again until you see it's been given a colorful revamp the foam remains the same but the fabrics been papped up to celebrate one hundred years of bars the german furniture maker is giving these

souls design classics and you and khalaf a look. this is vile to be as is director's chair from the one nine hundred twenty two twenty three. and here's its twenty eighteen reinterpretation. this is a brand of table from one nine hundred twenty four. and here's the twenty eighteen addition. to our house now house presents design classics from about house school in a new look. these are the works of german furniture makers christiane that azure. i did what i could keep hours we didn't want to put our house originals on a pedestal and view them as the museum pieces that they often are today wildstein quite the opposite we wanted to take them down from the museum pedestal and bring them back to life and. that's why that's our goal because we make furniture. so we got together with young designers to show this house furniture with light poles

moving in noiseless. christiane the pressure is an expert when it comes to bauhaus furniture for over forty years his company has been reproducing classics from the one nine hundred twenty. strictly according to the original designs. one of the main principles of the bauhaus school was form follows function so every piece of furniture is suitable for daily use but that's not all. that's then this these are more than a regular piece of gear on a trial the movie they're not just ordinary sofas and chairs was there for spirit and guys can somehow they transport and exude that. craftspeople and designers work together in the tech to workshops in the town of la and further lower saxony. it's a work process that was also practiced by powerhouse founder about a corpus. basic idea of reuniting

art with technology art with crafts was at the core of the powerhouse spirit and school of thought into this ball as it was and it was very important to the results produced by the school. and many of the classic pieces have now been reinterpreted by young designers for about house now house. brylin based designer cuts being dryly tackled in a fifty one vote to go p.s. is director's chair. the out all sort of about the challenge was how much or how little can i do to this chair so that it remains true to vote. but at the same time is recognizable as a new interpretation from twenty nine thousand. using new services and upholstery created six different versions of the chair. they still look modern today and for her that's proof house designers were far ahead of their time.

and sometimes they seem to look at the collections from a century ago. they were full of strange and utopian ideas which never became socially acceptable now you know just so what. if i took a look at us and the others me back then in an ordinary house. in them and their minds holes. in this one hundredth anniversary year of its founding about house designs still have the power to inspire. jennifer but up. money from berlin creates bashings which pay homage to the design school. german croatian industrial designer constantine creates bauhaus inspired pieces. and austrian label noir bell i wear has dedicated designs for sunglasses to architect about to go because and painter kandinsky. furniture maker cust under pressure level leads that the current popularity about house classics is more than just a recurring trend. to move furniture is timeless as were the other things that were

created there and the architecture. but what really excites us and spurs us on is the spirit of this school of thought is that. whether bauhaus or now house whether from one nine hundred nineteen or twenty nineteen these pieces of furniture only reveal their true age at second glance. in today's show was the world's tallest wooden high rise because skyscrapers anomaly birth with concrete and steel and this friend here tim a construction is an architectural might. the wooden high rise on the shore of lake. valley has eighteen stories and a speedy five and a half meters high it's the tallest wooden building ever to be built worldwide.

the project was the fulfillment of a personal dream for a developer. it's. possible. to make in good complicated buildings and also high rise buildings and how to reduce c o two this is sixty percent lower c o two than in. the. think clearer and clearer so it's healthier both for people but also for the nature. life that we can as an apartment on the fifteenth floor. be thoroughly enjoys being surrounded by the wood.

like this i feel good you can smell the good all the good you see makes. doing something with you so i think it's more like this let me see concrete right so you feel that the building is living actually with you. it took years of pioneering work to make the wooden tower impermeable to wind and weather it was designed by former like detector and moved a company specialized in temperate construction. project coordinator. ventured into new architectural territory. we have never done anything like this before so it was always about believing that it is possible a lot of hard work and a long night trying to figure out how can we do this the biggest problem. of the material so all the force of the external force as they will try to tilt the building or shift it. to load bearing columns had to be something deeper into the

ground than usual fireproofing was never a major issue the thick wooden beams can withstand a blaze even longer than steel another factor behind the trend in building with timber. this eighty four meter building under construction in vienna is also not afford for both france is building an entire development with eco friendly material and architects in london are planning a three hundred metre tower made of oak. i think it's a symbol of the green. shift you have a mental to think about and using timber is. a friendly method of building. for the future not the tall buildings but every building you can use that . the wooden high rise also offers a hotel and conference rooms. the hunger you go in the more you sense the wooden surroundings.

residents of the upper floors have to get used to the creaking in the swaying of the timber. if we in this area would have storms i think you can feel it a bit more like you think you feel it. it's living material so sore i think you will hear something and that's normal and this is good . for wooden high rises remain the exception. is a good example of what apartment buildings could look like in years to come. and with that. plastic bottle has served its purpose now it's trash every year more

than three hundred million tons of plastic and up on the golf sheep that some people are looking for ways to encourage us to reduce this problem one project by greek architect and the design our panel second doesn't just aim to make its way off this problem but also helps to brighten up his city and the project goes by the name of print your city. plastic recycled into a new form with a new function. the seeding elements in the greek port city of thessaloniki are part of a project called print your city. plastic waste as pop cycled this furniture from a three d. printer. the idea came from the dutch design studio the new role. as from greece as one of the project's founders the plastic is a mis understood material which is it's not the material that's the problem because i mean how we use it packaging for example yeah but i did my skill as it might only be used for

a few seconds but it never degrade so i could not but you know if we use it in some other way later we can change things and improve our lives. this is precisely what suckers hopes to achieve with the project. as the guy who designed the furniture to allow people to experience public spaces in a new way with different last years. rather than sitting right they can relax a bit more as if they were sitting in their own living room. this is the feeling we'd like to put across and bring private living space into public spaces at the fundamental the most. anyone who wishes to participate can suggest designs online or select pieces of furniture from the various templates the ones that are selected most often go into print try to save it i was so happy when i was walking through town one day and saw that a bench i had designed had been printed and then it's there for everyone thank you

to the others that you know. as soon as a new design template goes online the amount of recycled plastic needed for the three d. printing process is calculated automatically. at the zero waste lab or research initiative of the new raw people in festal uneek you can find out about recycling and deposit the plastic trash cleaned sorted shredded and melted down. personally i don't like to just throw things out at all but it was sides and i think we ought to have a responsible attitude toward our planet. after all we use its resources year by year. it takes about seventy kilos of plastic and ten hours to make a park bench from a three d. printer. nine of the colorful seats are given placed around for saloniki center and more

plans for adventure lee the idea is to spread them all around the city. the combination of recycling and design is proving a hit with the locals and visitors alike. and it's very impressive to see that you can transform waste into something a static in this way you know not everyone can enjoy it and sit here with their friends it's a definite gain you people there's nothing negative about it people of. the frontier city project was launched in cooperation with the city of the saloniki the younger generation in particular for the target group. we're going to keep it going we've already agreed to place more furniture pieces in other neighborhoods. and i think it encourages a new culture and approach to issues like recycling and zero waste production. among young people. and if the park benches ever fall

apart simply be recycled if it's a good idea and a sustainable one. and today's show you know max is focusing on and paul is studying architecture so you could say but already makes him a bit of an expert he says we live in a world that is often grey and drop and as a keen photographer he shows us how somebody can look. she just at a splash of color. grey reality becomes colorful urban fantasy geometric the canvases for splashes of color. photographer and architecture student ice transforms the often plain structures into genuine i catchers. so many buildings don't get seen because they've been simply painted grey like the rest of the city and. so they almost disappear in the fischman and.

who comes from berlin found the many grey and grey cityscapes to dreary so in two thousand and fifteen he started shooting his colorful photo series now he's studying in linz austria where an old tobacco factory has become a favorite setting. the industrial complex was built in the new objectivity style later famed as house design in the early twentieth century it was a new approach to architecture. is fascinated by it. look at the details and the windows and what a clever solution this mechanism is how fine the structure you find usually was totally new back down with that one if this is it's as if you installed a spaceship somewhere today and said this is the new architecture i think. i sees his photos as a criticism of contemporary architecture. he says modern designs lack

a spirit of experimentation and courageous ideas. on the industrial building and construction methods that were developed back then were implemented because they offered a way to build a lot for a little money. concept of progress behind them didn't take hold. we have no innovations in architecture there too i. can add colorful accents he turns an apartment block and lintz into an artwork in primary colors red yellow and blue. inspired by dutch painter piet mondrian. he also cites architects from the powerhouse tradition bruno touts design for workers housing in berlin placed equal emphasis on form functionality and color. architecture photographer apollo is giving the tobacco factory a thorough remodeling. on his computer he removes unwanted elements corrects the perspective and colors in various surfaces. this is not quite the

primary colors used by house but rather a more up to date interpretation with. this image to serve as a call for more courage in architecture. after he graduates hopes to design innovative buildings of his own colorful ones of course. was one of the most famous architects and furniture design is of the twentieth century vaughan and switzerland he fell in love with the mediterranean and built a holiday home that to get away from it all and enjoy french lifestyle in the early one nine hundred fifty s. called the couple know it's located in the small town in on the french of ya the cats unesco world heritage sites in twenty sixteen of acacia home is the smallest
