A long but engaging read.
I found it interesting to compare this to last weeks video and the comparisons
made within it. The Bahaus movement was started by a man called Walter Gropius.
Starting when the architecture was trying to be linked with fine art, one of
the first times this had been done.
The sky scrapers created
created by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe in 1920-21 are not far off from buildings
we see today built in cities. These proposed ideas were almost looking into the
future, although not actually built, they now reflect the ideas architects are
currently building work like this today. In the 1920’s this was such a huge
step for architecture, people like Gropius had completely broken the mould of
classic architecture and it was now moving into the modern movement.
