German architect Walter Gropius started the school in 1919. The Bauhaus school tried to combine form (the shape of something) and function (how we use something) in architecture so that buildings were practical but also simple. Bauhaus architects didn't like lots of decoration on buildings; they preferred flat roofs, straight lines and geometric shapes. Before Bauhaus, architects used lots of different shapes and colours, and materials like marble, hardwoods and even gold for the decorations in their buildings. Bauhaus used metal, glass, steel or plastic to make their buildings. Typical colours are white, grey and black. The designs for the furniture inside Bauhaus buildings are also simple, and functional.
