Participants will be encouraged to employ a logical and user-oriented rational approach to architectural design. The goal is to reflect beyond the intuitive and passionate ideas that allow signature creations.

Meals

The course fee includes lunch in the canteen on course days. In addition, with your Bauhaus Summer School ID card, you can purchase breakfast at a reduced rate. Cafeterias serve a wide variety of meals (including vegetarian dishes, snacks, and beverages). If you prefer to cook your own meals, you can buy fresh ingredients at a number of shops in town. There are also many quaint cafés and inexpensive restaurants in Weimar. For a taste of Thuringia, we recommend buying a Thuringian bratwurst hot off the grill at the Rathausmarkt.
