Because Bauhaus was established in Germany, this list will include mostly German watchmakers. One of the lesser-known brands (the watches are not always readily available online) is Zeppelin. They're both very similar to the earlier Stowa watches. Now viewed as a luxury brand, Nomos are more desirable to the average watch enthusiast. But that luxury label does come with a higher price.

However, the most important influence on Bauhaus was modernism, a cultural movement whose origins lay as early as the 1880s, and which had already made its presence felt in Germany before the World War, despite the prevailing conservatism. The design innovations commonly associated with Gropius and the Bauhaus—the radically simplified forms, the rationality and functionality, and the idea that mass production was reconcilable with the individual artistic spirit—were already partly developed in Germany before the Bauhaus was founded. The German national designers' organization Deutscher Werkbund was formed in 1907 by Hermann Muthesius to harness the new potentials of mass production, with a mind towards preserving Germany's economic competitiveness with England. In its first seven years, the Werkbund came to be regarded as the authoritative body on questions of design in Germany, and was copied in other countries. Many fundamental questions of craftsmanship versus mass production, the relationship of usefulness and beauty, the practical purpose of formal beauty in a commonplace object, and whether or not a single proper form could exist, were argued out among its 1,870 members (by 1914).Bittner recalls a guest student from Colombia who studied the textiles of Bauhaus artist Anni Albers. "She linked this to the question to what extent today the new interest in the Andean handicraft tradition among young Colombian designers ties in with the dialogue Anni Albers had in the 1940s and 1950s. So what can one learn from Andean craft traditions in modern life?" Lange & Söhne have different styles of watch collections, most of which have a more crowded and intricate (but not messy) layout such as the Zeitwerk collection, a mechanical watch with many elements on the dial. One of its most popular collections, however, has a minimalist design, which fits right into the Bauhaus style category. Another outstanding watch from Nomos is the Ahoi Atlantic, a 40.3mm watch with an Atlantic blue dial. Like the Nomos watch we featured above, this has a neat Bauhaus design with extra details that make this watch outstanding: the gold hour and minute hands that are coated with gray Superluminova, and an orange seconds hand.

Turkish architecture doctoral student Eci Isbilen came from Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in the United Statesto take part in an lab at the Bauhaus Academy in Dessau. Monika Markgraf, ed. (2007). Archaeology of Modernism: Renovation Bauhaus Dessau. Berlin: JOVIS Verlag. ISBN 978-3-936314-83-0. Initially based in Weimar the school aimed to bring together the different disciplines of architecture, design and art to produce what they referred to as a ' total work of art'. The word Bauhaus means literally ' construction house', or ' School of building'. To this day, Bauhaus remains one of the most influential design movements of all time, having married functional design with aesthetic pleasure to create a modern art form that could bring beauty to everyday objects and beyond.

Patek Philippe Calatrava: The Epitome of the Dress Watch

Mies van der Rohe repudiated Meyer's politics, his supporters, and his architectural approach. As opposed to Gropius's "study of essentials", and Meyer's research into user requirements, Mies advocated a "spatial implementation of intellectual decisions", which effectively meant an adoption of his own aesthetics. Neither Mies van der Rohe nor his Bauhaus students saw any projects built during the 1930s. In 1925, the Bauhaus "madhatters" were forced to move from Weimar to Dessau due to the tense political situation. There, architect Walter Gropius designed a school building that continues to captivate with its fluid glass facade. Today, the world cultural heritage is considered an icon of modernity.
