Graphic Design Studio 3 Spring 2024 Topics in Graphic Design Bauhaus Creative Coding Published and Designed by Audrey Milks About the Artist The book is designed by Audrey Milks. Audrey is a undergradute graphic design student at East Carolina University. this book is a culmination of work focusing on Creative Coding. This book explores a wide range of variety within Creative Coding, from basic shapes, vairables, arithmetic, conditional statements, random, loops, and type interaction. The experimentation of code inspired this series. Bauhaus in Code pg. 2

Each circle crossing over one another creates abstract shapes that look like googly eyes. pg. 5 Bauhaus in Code Bauhaus in Code pg. 6
The overlapping shapes create an interesting perspective for the viewer. As you look around the piece your eye moves from corner to corner. pg. 7 Bauhaus in Code Bauhaus in Code pg. 8

The missing pieces in the shapes look like a bite taken out from a cookie. The missing pieces create a break for the continuous shape of the circle. pg. 11 Bauhaus in Code Bauhaus in Code pg. 12
This work has a static look in its pattern. Until you see a change that creates a pop like motion. pg. 13 Bauhaus in Code Bauhaus in Code pg. 14
happened around 1919 to 1993. The core objective was a radical concept: to reimagine the material world to reflect the unity of all the arts. Bauhaus aimed to reunite fine art with functional design. Walter Gropius founded the movement. His main objective was to lead a school that approached pg. 15 art comprehensively. While the school’s principles grew more pronounced and distinct, the forms it took remained varied. This included artists working in typography, architecture, woodworking, set design, painting, and much more. In 1932, the movement had gained lots of attention. Instead of being able to capitalize on its Bauhaus in Code popularity, the school found itself beleaguered by the new Nazi government of Germany. The school then briefly relocated to Berlin, but by 1993 the school was forced to close down. Even after its closure, the movement of Bauhaus itself spread across the world. Bauhaus design is often abstract, angular, and geometric, with little ornamen- tation. The simplicity and form of Bauhaus inspired me to create a series of codes that correlated to this movement. This series of codes displayed are playful, simple, fun, geometric, and bubbly. The patterns created within the works are abstract. Most of these abstract pieces are created with the use of geometric shapes. Bauhaus in Code pg. 16
