Glossary
creative freedom (noun)
The liberty to express your ideas and experiment with materials, styles, or techniques without strict rules. This mindset allowed Josef and Anni Albers to break the mold at the Bauhaus school, proving that everyday things like yarn and glass can make masterpieces. Think of it like being handed a box of random LEGOs without an instruction manual—you get to build whatever you imagine!
