Examples of Bauhaus Graphic Design

One oft ignored impact of Bahaus is the impact it had on how design taught. Amongst other things Bauhaus introduced the first cross disaplinary program (both applied and fine art) and the now ubiquitous foundation year (the first year of a design school).

The actual collection itself is available at https://www.harvardartmuseums.org/publications/special-colle... The timeline view (with examples!) in particular is very interesting to see how specific features became to be so deeply associated with the movement.

For everyone interested in Bauhaus and several related styles, I recommend exploring monoskop.org.

The Danish Design Museum had an exhibition on it recently. Maybe it’s still there?

So if you want to have an excuse to go to Copenhagen, here it is!

Perhaps closer to much of the HN audience, the Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum in NYC has an exhibit as well! I went recently and it, along with the rest of the museum, is terrific. https://www.cooperhewitt.org/2019/10/30/cooper-hewitt-to-pre...
