Bauhaus Design
 
The Beginning of Modernism

The German Bauhaus Design Movement (1919-1933) had an important impact on the development of Modern Design and Architecture in the twentieth century. Founded in 1919 by Walter Gropius it was truly avant-garde in the techniques and ideas. It has been the most important  intellectual movement since with the goal to connect all spirits of art in an ideal synthesis. Especially the furniture design are representing these important modernistic ideas from designers and architects. By means of new teaching methods, the intention was to liberate the artist from his academic specialization so as once again to be able to focus on his craftsman skills. Despite its short duration, the Bauhaus masters creative and productive period prior to their expulsion by the Nazis in 1933 nevertheless left a mark on the history of art, which remains relevant to this day. This particularly applies to Bauhaus furniture, which ideally reflects the demands of aesthetics and functionality.Lounge Seating LC4 by Le CorbusierSofa LOTA by Eileen GrayEasy Chair LC2 by Le Corbusier
