BAUHAUS Bauhaus is a school in Germany that combined crafts and the fine arts. It operated from 1919 to 1933, and for the approach to design that it publicized and taught. The Bauhaus school was founded by Walter Gropius. The name Bauhaus stems from the German words for "to build" and "house." Ironically, despite its name and the fact its founder was an architect, the Bauhaus did not have an architecture department for the first several years of its existence. Bauhaus style became one of the most influential currents in Modernist architecture and modern design
The Bauhaus had a profound influence upon subsequent developments in art, architecture, graphic design, interior design, industrial design and typography. • The school existed in three German cities (Weimar from 1919 to 1925, Dessau from 1925 to 1932, Berlin from 1932 to 1933), under three different architect-directors (Walter Gropius from 1919 to 1927, Hannes Meyer from 1928 to 1930, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe from 1930 to 1933). • In 1920 two important artistic events help to change the Bauhaus. One was as international conference of the awant-grad that the idea on purity of form and honesty of construction to establish a new constructivist international. The other was the major exhibition of Soviet design arranged interest not only in constructivism but also the social aims which informed it.
Ludwig Mies van derRohe, along with Walter Gropius and Le Corbusier, is widely regarded as one of the pioneering masters of modern architecture. Walter Adolph Georg Gropius (May 18, 1883 – July 5, 1969) was a Germanarchitect and founder of Bauhaus. Along with Ludwig Mies van derRohe and Le Corbusier, he is widely regarded as one of the pioneering masters of "modern" architecture.
