New European Bauhaus: The Spirit of Renewal

What kind of Europe would you like to live in after the pandemic? What does a city that is sustainable, aesthetic and open to all mean in 2021? The aim of the New European Bauhaus (NEB) initiative is to create a European way of life that is liveable, inclusive, based on quality of life and aesthetic principles, affordable for all, sustainable and based on a circular economy. Its focus is on the creation of the liveable environment. The initiative is the mapping of the European Green Deal for society, building bridges among art, culture, science and technology, furthermore it is intended to connect different generations and develop overall social mobilisation. Key words: inclusiveness – aesthetics – sustainability.
