Abstract:
The Reimann School is the first book on a remarkable educational establishment - a design school established in Germany in 1906, many years before the Bauhaus. Without pretensions or grandiose philosophies, it set out to train artists to apply themselves to useful arts that the market needed and that people would buy. It was one of the first schools to run classes in such subjects as photography, interior design and window display. On its relocation to London, in the 1930s, it attracted some of the glitterati of the world of patronage and design to its board and its teaching staff, and was to have several of its students, in their turn, influence design education and design practice.
