  • 'Lebensgestaltungslehre': Formatting Life Beyond the Built
    BJHS Themes (2020), 5, 167–185 doi:10.1017/bjt.2020.13 RESEARCH ARTICLE Ernst Neufert’s ‘Lebensgestaltungslehre’: formatting life beyond the built Anna-Maria Meister* Professor of Architecture Theory and Science, Department of Architecture, Technical University of Darmstadt *Email: [email protected] Abstract In 1936, the Bauhaus-trained architect Ernst Neufert published the first edition of his seminal book Bau-Entwurfslehre. One of the most successful architecture books to date, the encyclopedic volume offered dimensioned floor plans for architectural tasks ranging from bunkers to dog kennels to Zeppelins. Two years later, Neufert started working as ‘norm expert’ for Reichsminister Albert Speer, with whom he published another manual in 1943, Bauordnungslehre. Meant to provide a total system of measures for architecture at large, the volume subjected building blocks, bricks and human bodies to Neufert’s all-encompassing octametric system. This article contrasts these two books against Neufert’s unpublished treatise –‘Lebensgestaltungslehre’. Never a bound volume, the latter was sketched out in diary entries between 1936 and 1942 on folded DIN A4 sheets (themselves normed) and organized in a card index. Reading them across their medial states, this article investi- gates the material, methodological and ideological character of Neufert’s Lehren. This is not the story of ahandbook; rather, this is a story of constructing Lehre one sheet at a time. Neufert’s attempt to format German society in the 1930s and 1940s through inherently

  • Bauhaus · Modernism · Design 
    Bauhaus · Modernism · Design Editorial The State Bauhaus School was founded in 1919 and became more than just a world-famous school of architecture and art: The Bauhaus was a trailblazer, representing the modernism movement that gained interna- tional acclaim. Today it is considered to be the most influential German cultural export of the 20th century. The Bauhaus stands for great ideas in both design and social reform. It significantly shaped architecture, art, and design, and its influence has lasted up until the present day. Experi- ments in form and colour, architectural icons and everyday design, wild parties and minimalist buildings are closely associated with the Bauhaus. The roots of this modern movement — how it evolved, how it inspired and polarised — can all be experienced in and around Weimar more impressively than in almost any other region. Revolution. New begin- nings. Departure into a new era in Germany’s first democracy, which was also founded in Weimar in 1919. Full of hope, with the absolute will to design and to change. Courage to experiment and zest for life. But also: Arguments and contradiction. Rejection. Expulsion. In Weimar and the surrounding cities of Jena, Erfurt, and Gera, along with the nearby countryside, the bountiful architectural testimonials, the artistic works and historical venues, the current exhibitions and events explain the suspenseful history of the Bauhaus and modernism. Travellers in Thuringia not only find the heritage left by the international artistic avantgarde during the Bauhaus era, but they can also discover the in spiring designers who are working there today and will continue to do so in the future.

  • “Indestructible Idea” of the Bauhaus and Its East German Reception
    FROM AN “ALIEN,HOSTILE PHENOMENON” TO THE “POETRY OF THE FUTURE”: ON THE BAUHAUS RECEPTION IN EAST GERMANY, 1945–70 Wolfgang Thöner The “Indestructible Idea” of the Bauhaus and its East German Reception The Bauhaus, the most influential modern design movement of the twen- tieth century, made its presence felt in East Germany (meaning the Soviet Zone of Occupation from 1945 to 1949 and, later, the German Democratic Republic) not only through its intellectual and material legacy, but also through the activities of former teachers and students from the school. The reaction to this legacy was always a politically charged affair in East Germany, linked with fundamental questions of culture, lifestyle, or, as it was called in the GDR, the socialist way of life.1 When one considers the legacy of the Bauhaus, particularly its adap- tation in different cultural contexts, it is important to distinguish the Bauhaus reception from the general reception of modern art.2 Through- out its existence, from 1919 through 1933, the Bauhaus considered itself part of an international avant-garde. Decades after the school was closed, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe spoke of the “indestructible idea” of the Bauhaus, without specifying whether this idea was more a question of style in the art-historical sense or, rather, one of lifestyle.3 The Bauhaus strove to shape the human environment comprehensively; in this regard, it was much more effective and complex than other institutions and movements concerned with design. It was a school which developed and applied new pedagogical methods; it was active in the fields of architec- ture, urban planning, landscape design, industrial design, and graphic design, as well as in the fine arts.

  • The Period That Led to the Bauhaus Was Very Much
    The period that led to the Bauhaus was very much influenced by approaches to education reform and by the pre-war arts and crafts movement, especially the progressive education movement and the concept of the Gesamtkunstwerk (total work of art). Henry van de Velde in Weimar in 1902 founded the Arts and Crafts Seminar and was the director of the School of applied arts from 1907 to 1915. The school played a significant role in the early history of the Bauhaus. Gropius had been already proposed as his successor by van der Velde in 1915.Under Henry van de Velde, the school workshops had already taken the transitional step from craftsmanship techniques to industrial technology in 1910. The discussions at the works council for art, where German intellectuals, architects and artists came together in the autumn of 1918, had another decisive influence on the pioneering programme of the Bauhaus. One work group including Walter Gropius discussed the far- reaching reform of the educational system. In the spring of 1919, it developed a mutual concept paper that served as a basis for Gropius’s concept. The artist William Morris was the founder and leader of a reform movement that aspired to counter the cultural damage caused by industrialization. Starting in 1861, he revived historic handicraft techniques in his workshops and used them to produce high quality goods such as fabrics, carpets, glass paintings, furniture and everyday objects. The wave of reform was reached to German Later, Where the industrialization had achieved a new quality in that time. Germany also recognized that well-designed industrial products represented a significant economic factor.
