Traversing the German nation, one will encounter a similar historic program to other European capitals \u2014 Romanesque churches, Renaissance monuments and more \u2014 blended with functionalist and modernist structures.<\/p>\n

Early twenty-first-century Germany gave rise to the thriving Bauhaus. Founded by Walter Gropius, this school introduced brand-new architectural thinking, an ideology rooted in function, clarity and mass production. Materials like concrete and glass were favored, socially progressive housing blocks were constructed, and a newfound appreciation for modernism emerged. The spirit of the great Bauhaus teachers \u2014 Mies van der Rohe<\/a>, for example \u2014 vigorously lives on and inspires contemporary designers<\/a> today. Additionally, modern industrial architecture<\/a> took off post-war and has played a prominent role in the nation\u2019s economic growth, continuing to do so today.<\/p>\n

The architectural devastation from WWII resulted in mass reconstruction efforts. The post-war restoration and rebuilding embraced a functional attitude, which continued the legacy of the Bauhaus movement despite its closing over a decade prior. Today, German architecture continues to champion the nation\u2019s modernist brilliance through innovative designs that push technological boundaries and celebrate culture.<\/p>\n
