# Bauhaus Stage carries the structure. New Stagecraft appear as accents, each further back than the last.
# Style descriptors only. Never imitates a specific artist, studio, brand or work.

An original image that takes its structure from Bauhaus Stage (Style, 1921–1929) and its accent from New Stagecraft (Style, 1890s–1930s). Structural cues: Geometrized bodies; Costumes of spheres and cones; Three acts by color; Choreography as spatial figure. Accent cues, used sparingly: Form made by light; Abstract space of steps and ramps; Painted flats banished; Compositions of simple volumes. Composition: Think in plan and elevation, set positions on a drawn floor grid. Type and lettering: Geometric sans only, sized by the ratio of circle to square. Let one material quality come from the second style: Plain grey surfaces and drapes, with color carried only by light. Mood: Play, Futurism, Technology, Calm, Exhilaration. Color: build on #e9e6dd, #67635d, #171615 with a single accent drawn from #e9e6dd, #67635d, #171615. Constraints: do not imitate, reference or name any specific artist, studio, brand, character or copyrighted work. Produce an original composition in the general period languages described above.

# Where the two fight
# - Both belong to Stage Design, so the difference is small. Push the roles further apart than feels comfortable.

# Cautions carried from each entry
# - Bauhaus Stage: Gluing spheres and cones onto a costume without choreographing the body as a moving form leaves only a geometric fancy dress party.
# - New Stagecraft: Assuming that light alone makes abstraction leaves the step heights and the performer's paths undecided, and the stage becomes merely a dim room.
