About Bauhaus
Bauhaus is a typeface design based on Herbert Bayer's 1925 experimental Universal typeface and the Bauhaus aesthetic overall. The Bauhaus school sought to modernize, unify and standardize design into an idealistic form that would combine function with aesthetics. One aspect of their many proposed reforms was a series of related Bauhaus typefaces. Common elements of Bauhaus fonts include geometric, sans-serif letterforms.
