They had a teaching ethos that architecture was the center of design education, and that all skills, such as material practice, aesthetic graphic skills, color theory, etc., all lead towards building design.
I suspect this attitude spills over into what people view as their 'best' work.

- rickdeckard 3y agoAgree, but I'm not sure that explicitly Bauhaus building design actually "shapes the modern world" as stated in the title. I'd argue that only a fraction of well-designed buildings in your surrounding actually embody the Bauhaus ethos and its derived aesthetics, but possibly a majority of well-designed products around you do.
