show a locals recommendations for cork and ireland. our viewers video will take us on a tour through cambodia. and we'll explore a powerhouse unesco world heritage site. where lens bauhaus is set to remain close for a few more years due to extensive renovations in the meantime fans can still get their fix at a small outpost the temporary boat house that he and this landmark retail store in the district of shiloh book fear you'll not only find a carefully curated shop with iconic design products there's also plenty of information on the history of the bauhaus and he. based it klavan shows me plans for the. new archive.

a large glass tower by the friend will certainly make it more visible. must know what makes the bauhaus so relevant even a hundred years later down the halls. as a team i guess powers as well house is a fascinating topic because its name and is 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. we can now bring these topics into the open and talk about why we are so interested in the interval or period. we can talk about it optimistic elements and where it might have failed in the exchange between society and creativity if you've got all these topics are related to. us and i list the

indian but as powerhouses grew and. before continuing to follow 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 boho 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 vassili kandinsky and paul plaint 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. twenty five weimar stopped funding bauhaus the school relocated to the industrial city of the us out here bauhaus engineer who go you design things like gas heaters and aircrafts. 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 our 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 powerhouse director he oversaw the construction of dust sounds five houses with balcony access for low income residents people's needs over luxury mansions but in one nine hundred thirty two the nazis drove the bow house out of desks out its last director meese found a hole or oversaw the moved to berlin there it was shut down by the nazis again bellhousing 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 the no you're not denying built in one thousand nine hundred sixty eight and ninety nine. by the bauhaus last director new fund 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 an m.f.a. for. 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 noir. was designed at least fundable was architecture firm in chicago the former bauhaus

director had emigrated to the united states in one nine hundred thirty eight but found of always plans were originally drawn up for an entirely different project. for coolbaugh field designed a building for the company in cuba and 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 it the plan was basically shelved quantities then found the road got the berlin commission and adopted the plans to the new projects you have to in up on the whole for india. 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 minus. one thousand two hundred tons steel roof post a major challenge it had to be lifted very slowly miss found a whore watched carefully from his car. inspiration in one nine hundred sixty eight miss found all have passed away in one nine hundred sixty nine the neuer not sonali gallantly soon became a major architectural landmark in berlin and a cultural hotspot. this combination of glass stone and steel is exemplary but there's testimony to a marks the culmination of a long process of designing open spaces to be. 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 law and he will still take a while in the meantime you can visit another creation by me fundable in the whole engine house district at nineteen thirty three country house 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. often the inside is flooded with light it has beautiful proportions all of this creates a distinct feeling. that's why i asked 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 in the 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 you can be transformed with each exhibition. moment and also look for. and we deliberately look for people who fit the building and match muse unique style. but 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 so you can see that neighboring houses were built in the middle of their respective property parts with. the flats is another example of his special talent for cleverly arranging buildings on a plot of those and then boyd of them going to. a country house with you. aren't in the middle of berlin not bad. i don't know about you but i just can't get enough of this cream 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 us hometown 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 the spirits a young city student city great pubs friendly people on the banks of the beautiful river the. so this is one of vikings from the city here the river leap 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 court is called has got twenty nine bridges on the river the dr has only got twenty four so that makes all those the venice of 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 you want to place 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 we get the show your cult english 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 english market dates 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 a go if you're very busy here today every dark know it's a silver lining in every survey learning is dark clothes. 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. it's already finished in cork where 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 whose i don't know or horseshoe estate what is the essence of this estate it's got the motto back then was lights air and song for all fast. the idea was to get people out of their crimes tenements out of their dark backyards and build spacious estates close to nature that's what happened here. because we're standing in front of the horseshoe estate include it's like the realization of but idea. because if new residents were welcomed with open arms welcome this is the home of

the new man and there is fresh air and social encounters are part of the package. i'm going to out of that link and there seem to be lots of parallels to the bauhaus movement here is that it really became a scene is well. 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 nor studied they're pretty pleased he wrote a housing board and like a 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 he got. here because it's. can you give me an example. of what it was going to tell its 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 extravagant top people. know to me. modern architecture helped chamberlain as we know it today if you want to see another original bauhaus construction you should consider a trip to me bring brandon book and we're now about an hour's drive from here in the bauhaus second director home is my undesigned a trade union 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. . 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 about how stuff called mom. 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. 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. to the fitness card after it did to her now next to the gym it has a really nice feature the windows slide open so in the summer they can be fully opened watched in here that way the gym feels like it's outdoors even i was actually inside. when your baby gets when you look around you can see clear materials you know paintings or ornaments just pure functionality so no food to annoy you to. understand could you picture going to school here on your. yes the memorial is situated nicely for now is 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 just like me you're probably wondering what these houses look like on the inside. shows me one of them. it's been restored to the original nineteen twenties designed today you can rent it as a vacation home there. must be this is typical furnishing from the weimar republic era. but it has a few modern touches like the slump or some of the earliest tubular steel furniture produced and death so. that's all good. time now for one of your travel videos this week and weekend if you know that he shared

his journey through come up with us he started in the capital phnom penh headed to the coast and then man as a way to the so-called rabbit island oddly enough you won't find any rabbits there but you will catch and these beautiful sunsets. down down down down down every day if you. don't know. you.

i in berlin there's plenty of the bauhaus legacy to discover often tends to hide in plain sight in a chocolate factory isn't just a must for anyone with a sweet 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 store's interior. answer my grandfather knew which of the personal by 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's a not only designed the shop but also greatly contributed to the entire house with us but a guitar on common often do people still come to look at the design or do they may . come for the chocolates only law. most come for the chocolate lord but some are also interested in the architecture you know of and were listed in several architectural gods for them so people want to see that tonight with one board on i mean it's design isn't the only thing historical about your shop your chocolate is to what something i shouldn't miss as a recommender specialty chocolate. there's only one other manufacturer in germany

that makes this kind of chocolate knows what it's produced industrially. i was made by hand you should try it. the barrels only survived a couple of months and berlin but the architects my director is still manage plenty of traces throughout the german capital really excited to see what next year's anniversary.
