What is the Bauhaus style?
1 Answer

The Bauhaus style is characterized by plain geometric shapes such as rectangles and spheres that are devoid of ornamentation. The Bauhaus was a progressive German art and design school founded by the architect Walter Gropius that operated from 1919 to 1933. The goal of the Bauhaus was to erase the distinction between art and craft, while embracing the use of new technologies and materials. The school moved from Weimar in 1925 to the city of Dessau, where it enjoyed its heyday under Gropius, then Hannes Meyer and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe.
