Bauhuas Movement
The Bauhaus Movement originally developed from 1919 to 1933. The term Bauhaus is a German term for "House of Building" or "Building School." The entire movement has overall had an influence in art, typography, graphic design, architectural design and interior design. The movement was pioneered by Walter Gropius but also involved an influence of Belgian artist Henry de van Verde who established a new school of arts in 1902. 
The Bauhaus movement originally started as a school of arts but ultimately became a movement as it expanded its focus of era The Bauhaus movement believes in the total work of art as it manipulates geometric forms along with scale and proportion. It also involves using reds, blacks, yellows and blues in many pieces of work.
