My Favourite Architects & Designers
Architecture and design belong to the "applied arts". Both relate to the human environment. People form their environment according to functional, but also according to aesthetic aspects. This with a wide variety of approaches: individualistic to overall social solutions, conservative to future-oriented concepts, etc.

Bauhaus, for example, attached great importance to the social obligation of design. The focus of Bauhaus was therefore on the construction of a modern everyday world and everyday work processes aimed at a dignified life for all.

People form the environment when ideas and drafts flow into real design and architecture projects, just as the environment forms people.
