"Bauhaus-Shortcuts"

Bauhaus ShortCuts

Die Bauhaus ShortCuts präsentieren Einblicke in die Geschichte des Bauhauses in Form von Informationsgrafiken, die im Rahmen des DFG-Projekts "Bewegte Netze" entstanden sind. Dabei wurden die Netzwerke und Beziehungen von Bauhaus-Angehörigen in den 1930er und 40er Jahren untersucht. Mit dem Ende des Projekts soll die "Forschungsstelle für Biografien ehemaliger Bauhaus-Angehöriger" die verbleibenden Fragestellungen zu Ende führen, Ansprechpartner für Interessenten sein und die entstandene Datenbank weiter pflegen.

And last but not least, a holistic understanding of aesthetics, which many architects still value today as their personal guiding principle.

The Bauhaus Perspective on Green Spaces

The Bauhaus shifted perspectives further afield. Modernism turned familiar perforated façades into glass envelopes – thereby providing an unobstructed view of the outside world. What role does the outdoors play in the Bauhaus? What is its understanding of the countryside and green areas we live in? And how does the Bauhaus period inspire the design of open spaces today?
