Shortly after the world was shaken by World War I, a design school in Weimar, Germany, was established by Walter Gropius, a German architect.
Although the impact can’t be compared to the horror brought by the first World War, the Bauhaus movement was much bigger than just a regular design school. Gropius’ school influenced the world of design and all artistic fields like no other know movement in history.
Hundred years later, we are still influenced by it. For this reason and to celebrate the impact of Bauhaus on our lives, the website 99designs asked its community to imagine what the logos of famous brands such as Google, Apple, BMW, or Apple, would look like if they were adapted using the characteristic features of the Bauhaus style.
In this post, you can see some of the results. Although the original Bauhaus students would certainly tackle the logo designs differently, it is still interesting to see what contemporary designers have done with it.

Caitlin McCormack does another type of crochet! Although she is a cat lady, she is well under eighty, and her art is far from traditional.
