9781878271426: The ABC's of Bauhaus, The Bauhaus and Design Theory

Synopsis

Interior Design magazine says that The ABC's of the Bauhaus is, "a collection of visually and intellectually stimulating essays about basic design courses at the Bauhaus, Froebel toys, inflation in the Weimar Republic, the typography of Herbert Bayer, Psychoanalysis, and fractal geometry. A fascinating fantasia on an elementary theme."

And Elysabeth Yates Burns McKee, from Design Book Review says that "perhaps the most successful aspect of The ABC's is its ability to elucidate complex and fundamental theroetical aspects of the Bauhaus program."

Review

The ABC's is a model of the ways in which design and writing might be harnessed to probe and illuminate a visual subject .... It sets a formidable standard. Eye

While this may be the briefest book on the Bauhaus, we also regard it as one of the best. Ballast Quarterly Review
