how design classics get modern make over and it's. been funicello and you project up 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 baha school was open for just fourteen years but that was long enough to create a form that still influences our lifestyles today we take a brief look back at how it all began. the powerhouse school was founded in via modern one thousand nine hundred. recruited the most famous artists of the time six years later the boat house moved into. 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 is here until the v. and powerhouse furnishings are now designed 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 boyer and it's at first glance this chair also looks like the original but look again until you'll see it's been given a colorful revamp the form remains the same but the fabrics been papped up to celebrate one hundred years of bars a german furniture maker is giving these souls design classics and you and khalaf a look. this is a says director's chair from nine hundred twenty two twenty three. and here's it's

twenty eighteen re-interpretation. this is everything end of the table from nine hundred twenty four. and here's the twenty eighteen edition. about house now house presents design classics from the bow house school and a new look. these are the works of german furniture makers christiane. i devoted followers we didn't want to put our house originals on a pedestal and view them as the museum pieces that they often are today let's stay 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 ball house furniture with light poles move it in noisily. 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 s. . 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 in the on the trolley movie they're not just ordinary sofas and chairs was their furniture with spirit and 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 is. basic idea of reuniting art with technology with crafts. was at the core of the powerhouse spirit and school of thought that thinks one of those balls 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. berlin based designer cuts being dryly tackled in a fifty one vote to go p.s. this director's chair. at all sort of about the challenge was how much or how little can i do to this chair so that it remains true to. say but at the same time is recognizable as a new interpretation from twenty nine thousand and one. using new surfaces and upholstery tiling created six different versions of the chair. they still look modern today and for her that's proof bauhaus designers were far ahead of their time. and it's nice and they seem to look at the collections from a century ago but 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 made 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 off month from berlin creates bashings which pay homage to the design school. german corrosion industrial designer constantine burchett's creates bauhaus inspired pieces. and austrian label noise about i where has dedicated designs for sunglasses to architect about to go p s and painter. furniture maker quest on the fresh lead believes that the current popularity about house classics is more than just a recurring trend. in movies and not that it's furniture is timeless you know that as were the other things that were created there. and the architecture. what really excites us and spurs us on is the spirit of this school of thought that think sure

. whether bauhaus or no house whether from nine hundred nineteen or twenty nineteen these pieces of furniture only reveal their true age at second glance. in today's show we're focusing on architecture and design and in our next report we have for the top off a very special structure that musa tower in norway is the world's tallest wooden high rise and because skyscrapers anomaly birth with concrete and steel and this friend here tim a construction is an architectural might still. the wooden high rise on the shore of enormous valley has eighteen stories 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 developers. it's a symbol of what is possible. to make in wood complicated buildings and also the high rise buildings and how to reduce c o two this is sixty percent lower c o two than steel and concrete you think clearer and clearer so it's healthier both for people but also for the nature. of life as an apartment on the fifteenth floor. be thoroughly enjoys being surrounded by would.

like this i feel diverted you can smell the birds all the video you see makes. doing something with you. so i think it's more like this living. concrete right so you feel that the building is living actually. it took years of pioneering work to make the wooden tower impermeable to wind and whether. it was designed by fall architect and movement a company specialized in temper 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 long nights to try 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 are shifting. the load bearing call and had to

be something deeper into the ground than usual. proofing 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. eighty four meter building under construction in vienna is also not afford or don't france is building an entire development with eco friendly material and architects in london are planning a three hundred metre tower. i think it's a symbol of the green shift we have little to think about and using timber. from the method of building. for the future not necessarily tall buildings but every building he can use. the wooden high rise also offers a hotel and conference rooms. the higher you go and the more you sense the wooden surroundings.

residents of the upper floors have to get used to the creaking in the swing of the timber be. in this area i would have. i think you can feel it a bit more like you think you feel it. it's material so i think you will hear something and that's normal and this is good. so far wouldn't high rises remain the exception but the musa tower is a good example of what apartment buildings could look like in the years to come. there and with that. this plastic bottle has served its purpose now it's trash

every year more than three hundred million tons of plastic and up on the garbage heap but some people are looking for ways to encourage us to reduce this problem one project by a greek architect and through the design our panel sac us doesn't just aim to make us aware of 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 saloniki are part of a project called print your city. plastic waste as pops cycled this furniture from a three d. printer. the idea came from the dutch design studio for a 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 of packaging for example yeah but i mean my schematic might

only be used for a few seconds but it never degrades 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 kano sockets hopes to achieve with the project. a diagnosis that god 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 after the it i thought they were sitting in their own living room. and i just thought this is the feeling we'd like to put across these and bring private living space into public spaces of 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 baby i thought 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 to get

thank you to be added to the kindle. as soon as a new design template goes online the amount of recycled plastic needed for the three d. printing process miscalculated automatically. that the zero waste research initiative of the new ra people in festal n e k 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 besides 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 have already been placed around for saloniki center and

more plans for eventually 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. 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 is nothing negative about it people. the printer 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 yes . 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 they'll simply be recycled if it's a good idea and a sustainable one. and today's show you know max is focusing on and design. is studying architecture so you could say that already makes it 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 a lot better she just at a splash of color. gray 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 power house design in the early twentieth century it was a new approach to architecture. is fascinated by it. look at the detail the windows and what a clever solution this mechanism is how fine the structure you find usually 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. can add colorful accents he turns an apartment block and limits 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 apologizes 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 von and switzerland he fell in love with the mediterranean and built a little holiday homes out to get away from it all and enjoy french lifestyle in the early one nine hundred fifty s. called the couple known it's located in the small town. on the french of ja declare that unesco world heritage sites in twenty sixteen the vacation home is the
