For my design project I decided to travel to Germany (particularly
Weimar,
Dessau, and Berlin) and study one of my favorite subjects, The Bauhaus 1919-1933. I wanted my main new source to be The New York Times because they have a fantastic Arts Section of their paper. It was discovered through my article, that perhaps one of the famous Bauhaus designers Franz Ehrlich was a designer for the Nazi's and helped them design the famous gate at the Buchenwald death camp that reads '
Jedem Das Seine'. After discovering the questionable career choice of one of the professors at the Bauhaus I decided to follow the other legendary Bauhaus figures such as Mies van der Rohe, and Walter Gropius - which both moved to America and continued their architectural designing careers.
