What are Najib’s achievements?

The metalwork workshop Nagy was responsible for designed some of the most influential works of the Bauhaus and was dedicated to experimenting with the combination of metal and glass, an effort that opened up a new approach to lamp design. The teapot designed by Brand in 1924 adopts a geometric form and is hand-forged from silver, with obvious handicraft characteristics. In 1926, the desk lamp she designed became more mature, with simple and beautiful shape and good function, and was mass-produced by a factory in Leipzig.

Nagy also created a large number of paintings and graphic works, all in an abstract style. He believed in the power of simple structures and used flat surfaces to express this power. The Bauhaus book series, posters, photography and films he designed all have strong rational features and show the positive effects of rationalization on design. Nagy also made bold experiments in font design. He believed that modern printing styles must adapt to the latest printing machinery in order to be clear, concise and precise. At the same time, Nagy is also a pioneer in the extensive use of photo collage and abstract photography techniques in design.
