Hey people

Just returned from Berlin, Germany a few days ago, and although the words 'COLD', 'BLIZZARDS' and 'ANTARCTIC' springs to mind, 'AMAZING' is defiantly the word that over shadows the whole experience.

For me the whole trip was all about the Bauhaus, a personal ambition/dream of mine to visit ever since the college and university days, sitting in the lecture room being fascinated about the Bauhaus and its search for utopian dreams, through the world of design. I'd sit there and be amazed about the views and style of such people like Walter Gropius and László Moholy-Nagy and how they could portray these messages through a piece of architecture or graphic design.

The Archive building is truly an amazing building both aesthetically and functionally. Its beautiful modernist style architecture flows inside and out, making it a pleasure admiring it either way. The building was a late work of Walter Gropius, the founder of the Bauhaus. It was planned in 1964 for Darmstadt and was built 1976-79 in modified form in Berlin. Today, its characteristic silhouette is one of Berlin's landmarks.

The Bauhaus was the twentieth century's most important school of design, architecture and art. Its programme and products have maintained their influence on design up to the present day.

The Bauhaus archive represents the entire spectrum of Bauhaus activities ranging from works created by the school's famous teachers: Walter Gropius, Paul Klee, Lyonel Feininger, Wassily Kandinsky and László Moholy-Nagy.

Hope you enjoy
