  3. The Study of Design How it got started • The Bauhaus School started in Dessau, Germany in 1919 by Walter Gropius, an architect. He brought together artisians from different training backgrounds to organize the foundation of the teachings in the school. The intention was to blend art with industry. Craftsmanship was the prime importance as well as function and beauty. In formulating this foundation criteria similar in all the classical arts emerged. These similarities were studied, written about and discussed. Thus, the basic concepts of design have evolved and are studied today as we will do in this course.

  15. Gestalt • A branch of psychology developed in the 1920’s that says visual images are perceived as unified wholes before they are perceived as parts. The need for wholeness is so great that the mind naturally seeks to find order in Chaos. • Knowledge of this phenomenon is especially useful in to artists. They can creatively control and engage the viewing audience in their art by the way in which they organize and apply the elements and principles of visual art.
