Bauhaus color theory
Color is a powerful tool that permits designers to influence mood and compose spaces. We accept these truths about color, but we don’t examine the roots of these beliefs. Part of our modern understanding of color is rooted in Bauhaus color theory.
Bauhaus is a design movement. It teaches many influential artists in many disciplines all over the world. The Bauhaus art school doesn’t exist anymore, but the Bauhaus color theory still influences our understanding and believing about color.
Present Simple express habits or actions that happen regularly.
For example:
They want
They use
They create
To make these sentences negative, we use don’t before the verb.
We use don’t when the personal pronouns are:
I - you - we - they
Affirmative
They want
They use
They create
Negative
They don’t want
They don’t use
They don’t create
These pronouns are 3rd person:
it - he - she
In the text, we can read:
“It teaches many influential artists...”
“The Bauhaus color theory influences our understanding...”
“The Bauhaus art school doesn’t exist anymore…”
In these sentences, the subject is a 3rd person:
“it”
“the Bauhaus”
“the Bauhaus art school”
“s” and “es” ending for affirmative
In 3rd person, the affirmative form of verbs takes an “s” or “es”:
it teaches
it influences
“doesn’t” for negative
In 3rd person, the negative form of verbs
uses the auxiliary “doesn’t”
omits the “s” or “es” ending
it (the Bauhaus art school) doesn’t exist anymore
