Edition Detail, the leading international publisher specializing in architecture and structural design, commissioned us to design their publication Unser Bauhaus Erbe/ Our Bauhaus Heritage.
2019 being the year of Bauhaus’ 100th birthday induced Edition Detail to take a critical look at its legacy in contemporary architecture. Throughout the book, 10 international authors explore the question of whether and where Bauhaus has left its mark on contemporary architectural events. A photo essay by Berlin-based artist Friederike von Rauch accompanies the texts.
Referring to the photographs that portray the Academy of Arts in Berlin’s Hansa Quarter, we chose a bright colored cover for this handy paperback, and created a bilingual title that works like a logotype. Focused on the essential message without any compromise, the inside texts are accompanied by strictly black-and-white images so the photography part stands out.
