the. design classics which are simple pure and functional designed by a small art school which revolutionized the industry 100 years ago powerhouse dispensed of unnecessary for us with its radical vision volta copius wanted to rethink architecture in the arts with artists such as best like and in skiing. and leone on finding a he found of the state house in weimar 919. their arts college soon became an avant garde. in their workshops they experimented with materials and form creating design which was unprecedented in its clarity and functionality. but it didn't appeal to everyone the 1st show home environment was seen as a provocation and met with heavy criticism

a bunch of free spirited individuals who held nothing sacred not color materials nor perception. breaking conventions they explored new lifestyles which were rather too wild provided by 925 it was all over they were too adventurous for their home city. they ventured on to destiny and industrial city that welcomed the bell house with open arms and funded a completely new building for their school. the master houses were built nearby white cubic villas for the professors designed in the. but all house artists with furniture from their own workshops. director of logic copious shape the city with the boat house movement the turtle settlement offered light space and a garden for everyone as an antidote to the cramped gloomy residential blocks of the industrial cities every last detail was designed with precision and the 314 terraced houses were built cheaply and quickly. also designed by gropius was the

employment office it was one of the 1st of its kind with bright glass corridors. the same a static was used here for different purposes with coffee goes riverside cafe on the elbow. from 928 its new director harness maya made the bauhaus even more political and radical his houses were an attempt to mix social classes based on need and not luxury. funding ended when the nazis came to power and the ball house close in 1930 to one last privately funded attempt came from miss fund and berlin but it failed in 1033 the bauhaus had shut down. is about house history have its ideas. hardly in these times of people people are rediscovering its visionary potential how was bow house continuing to inspire today

slogans these works ask questions of society in keeping with the principles of bauhaus. how sustainable should our society be how do we handle digitalisation these are the questions we analyze in our exhibition the challenges of the next 100 years of. thinking big and acting globally the gallery eigen home has become an international institution foundations the great institute and artists from china are all part of the worldwide network of the gallery owner and his business partner bianca focused creating synergies was the principle of the bauhaus university right from the start. 1000000 cars a media artist which i am you could use the architecture workshops just as well as the product design or workshops. or this brings in an interdisciplinary aspect along with the sense of community which was characteristic of weimar. busy

it's such a sense of community hasn't always been a given in 1025 the buy a house had to leave and it was regarded as a disgrace environment just like forum is today a monumental nazi building right next to it a mighty cube has been erected in the new battle house museum. bright and minimalist an architectural statement. its purpose is not to conserve the bow house tradition but rather to act as a forum for discussion. aesthetic and social questions are opened up again due to the marrow of history. and there are some incredible things to see from playful structures and expressionist sketches to little wooden houses with so-called furniture for the people functional but far removed from what is supposed to be bell house style by maya has long been a place of experimentation. assume self said that before tackling the design of
