Bauhaus without its founding father Walter Gropius?
Simply inconceivable? What about its previous history?
Although Gropius made no mention of beginnings,
roots or sources of inspiration, Bauhaus didnˇt simply
happen as the result of a brainwave but emerged
as a development that tells its own story. A development
in terms of society at large and design in particular,
consisting of currents that made Bauhaus possible in
the first place, and theories still used today as the basis
for this influential approach to design.
