BAUHAUSTAPETE—NEU AUFGEROLLT
NEW ROLLOUT BAUHAUS WALLPAPER

Accompaning scientific catalogue for the exhibition
at the Museum of Cultural History, Osnabrück

Developed in 1929, based on an initiative led by Tapetenfabrik Gebr. Rasch & Co., together with students and teachers of bauhaus in Dessau, the bauhaus wallpaper became a lasting success.
The exhibition in the Osnabrück Museum Quarter covers topics including the history of the project, the advertising campaign, the latest edition of the bauhaus wallpaper and modern residential utopia. The aim is to provide a contemporary insight into a special Bauhaus product on the theme of everyday life, whereby the contradictions present in the icon history of bauhaus are to be shown alongside its utopias and ideas for collective, interdisciplinary design.

The Typography

Following the museum’s corporate design rules, Avenir Next is used all over this publication.

A big THANK YOU for the wonderful collaboration and the fantastic exhibition to Maren Waike-Koormann from Osnabrück Museum Quarter.
My regards go to the great team of rasch Druckerei und Verlag, and Ilka Backmeister-Collacott.
