Bauhaus, the most widely known school of the design history, represents the best-recognized design movement in the past. It founded the fundamental pedagogy of design, which schools still use in now days. For example, Bauhaus provided the common first semester that introduced materials, drawing techniques and forms to students and stimulated their interest in these creative technologies before they focus on a particular workshop. In my first year of design, the study system is very similar to the course only the time became longer. For having the common study course, both schools have the same purpose that is giving students the creative ability and a genial idea of all kinds of design in order to make them aware about which particular workshop they are truly interested. Furthermore, these two schools teach students both techniques and philosophies of design, which allows students to have the skills of both craftsmen and designers. In addition, you could see from both schools that the change of social situation causes the change of design school’s ideology. Therefore, nowadays educational system of the design schools are developed basic on the Bauhaus’ fundamental pedagogy, we could still see many similarities between both systems. What might the future design school look like? We will find out soon.
