Баухауз (Bauhaus) – высшая школа промышленного искусства, строительства и художественного конструирования. Баухауз был основан в 1919 году архитектором Вальтером Гропиусом. Программа обучения в школе предполагала соединение искусства со строительной техникой на современной основе.
Дизайнеры Баухауза считали своей главной задачей проектирование промышленных изделий и их систем с позиций высокой ответственности перед человеком и обществом. Баухауз существовал как уникальная высшая художественная школа до 1932 года. С приходом к власти национал-социалистов он был закрыт из-за демократических идей, объединявших мастеров разных национальностей.
Влияние идей Баухауза наиболее заметно в функциональной архитектуре современных офисов и фабрик.
