Learning about the Bauhaus and their philosophies, ideologies, work methods, etc. always interests me. When I was traveling through Germany I got to see several art exhibits that included work by Bauhaus affiliates and some of their buildings. What I especially loved seeing was an exhibit in Cologne with pages and pages of point/line/plane sketches by Bauhaus artists. Seeing early sketches of some of the ideas from which most modern day design teaching methods and curriculum are derived was very powerful and inspiring.
