The Bauhaus-Archiv in Berlin has announced a new corporate design along with a new font. “bayer next” by L2M3 borrows from the Universal font designed by Herbert Bayer in 1926 at the Bauhaus – carefully transposing it into the present.

Whether it’s Max Bill’s “Ulmer Hocker” in red or storage boxes that call to mind overseas trunks: The interior design show “Neue Räume” presents all things familiar – in a fresh look. A concept that goes down a real treat with the Swiss clientele.

Stylish and fit for any activity: Outdoor classics for sitting, lounging or just looking pretty. Attractive, cool and simply indispensable.

As an historical institution Bauhaus may be known across the globe yet its profile remains unusually vague all the same. No wonder. After all there were three different colleges, in three different locations with three different directors. A new travel book now attempts to draw a detailed map of the school’s checkered history.
