The futurists took an extreme look at design, eliminating anything old fashioned. Science and technical knowledge was the inspiration for designs rather than history. Intense violence and modern warfare was the ānew world.ā This poster from 1915, uses very angled lines with black and white, bold contrast to depict three soldiers with their weapons walking in the city.
The bauhaus style emphasized functional buildings, daylight factories and open plan warehouses. The aim was to improve the construction and habitation of the living spaces for everyone. Practical objects were the focus of this style of design. This photo is a very open floor plan with a functional design. The balconies are all lined up to maintain usability but the building itself is also designed to be a work of art.
The hippie movement was a counter cutlture to the uncomfortable older styles. Using bright colors becomes iconic in pop culture. This photo of peace and love uses many bright colors and contrasts to portray their message. They are dead set against living in marketed society. They did not want to be told what to do or follow so this style shows a type of rebelling style.
