Abstract

In Britain, by the late 1890s, the ideas of the Arts and Crafts movement had become part of the educational establishment. This could be considered an odd occurrence, to have in positions of power and influence designers whose ideas about hand manufacture, it would appear at first glance, were at odds with the demands of an advanced industrial manufacturing nation. This is one of the many contradictions that the ideas of Modernism seem to thrive on. It is from this meeting of opposites that ideas are generated, and although the ideas of the Arts and Crafts movement were not to continue to influence ideas in Britain, they were to become an important part of the development of Modernism in Germany.
