Bauhaus is the common term for the Staatliches Bauhaus, an art and architecture school in Germany that operated from 1919 to 1933, and for the approach to design that it developed and taught.

In 1919 Walter Gropius merged the College of Fine Arts and the School of Arts and Crafts into the Staatliches Bauhaus in Weimar.

In 1919, after delays caused by the destruction of World War I and a lengthy debate over who should head the institution and the socio-economic meanings of a reconciliation of the fine arts and the applied arts ( an issue which remained a defining one throughout the school's existence ), Gropius was made the director of a new institution integrating the two called the Bauhaus.

In 1919 Swiss painter Johannes Itten, German-American painter Lyonel Feininger, and German sculptor Gerhard Marcks, along with Gropius, comprised the faculty of the Bauhaus.

From 1919 to 1922 the school was shaped by the pedagogical and aesthetic ideas of Johannes Itten, who taught the Vorkurs or ' preliminary course ' that was the introduction to the ideas of the Bauhaus.

The audiobook Bauhaus Reviewed 1919 – 33 includes a short English language interview with Mies.

A new culture developed in and around Berlin, including architecture and design ( Bauhaus, 1919 – 33 ), a variety of literature ( Döblin, Berlin Alexanderplatz, 1929 ), film ( Lang, Metropolis, 1927, Dietrich, Der blaue Engel, 1930 ), painting ( Grosz ), and music ( Brecht and Weill, The Threepenny Opera, 1928 ), criticism ( Benjamin ), philosophy / psychology ( Jung ), and fashion.
