  1. Bauhaus ( 1919 – 1933 )

  2. THE BAUHAUS MOVEMENT, GERMANY : The German word Bauhaus essentially means “House of Building or Building School”. A movement in the twentieth century. The school was first opened in 1919 by architect Walter Gropius, and over the years existed in three different German cities: Weimar (1919-1925), Dessau (1925-1932) and Berlin (1932-1933).

  3. Goals 'modernization process could be mastered by means of design’. The integration of all branches of art and craft under the primacy of architecture. Asynthesis of aesthetic production around the needs of a broad segment of the population.

  4. Vision The Bauhaus vision was to embrace the new technological developments unifying art, craft, and technology. It was primarily focused on clean geometric forms and balanced visual compositions.

  5. They focus on: Architecture Industrial design Graphic design Fine art Photography New media.

  6. The greatest achievements Interior, product, and graphic design. For example: Marcel Breuer created many furniture designs at the Bauhaus that have become classics, including the first tubular-steel chair. He said that, unlike heavily upholstered furniture, his simple, machine-made chairs were "airy, penetrable," and easy to move.

  12. Closure Political pressure by the Nazi movementcontinued to cast a shadow over the school. In 1928 Gropius resigned and was then succeeded by Hannes Meyer. The school carried on with practice as usual. In the 1930s the Bauhaus received criticism from the Nazi writers, labeling the Bauhaus 'un-German' - not agreeing with the modernistic styles the school was predominately based on. The writers characterized the Bauhaus as a front for Communists, Russians, and social liberals. Further pressure from the Nazi régime forced the Bauhaus to close on April 11, 1933.
