Bauhaus 100

In 1919, an art school opened in Germany that would reshape the world — the Bauhaus. A century later, its radical thinking still shapes our lives today. Bauhaus 100 chronicles the story of Walter Gropius, the architect and founder of the Bauhaus, and the teachers and students he gathered to form this influential school. Traumatised by his experiences during the Great War, and determined that technology should never again be used for destruction, Gropius vowed to reinvent the way art and design were taught. At the Bauhaus, all disciplines would converge to create the buildings of the future, and define a new way of living in the modern world.
