Bauhaus is a historical art, architecture, and design movement that originated in Germany in the early 20th century. The movement was founded by Walter Gropius in 1919 with the opening of the Bauhaus school, and lasted until 1933 when the school was closed by the Nazi regime. The Bauhaus movement sought to break down the boundaries between fine arts and crafts, promoting a more unified and functional approach to design.

Characterized by a focus on simplicity and functionality, the Bauhaus movement emphasized that form should follow function, and that design should prioritize practicality over ornamentation. As such, Bauhaus artists and designers often used circles, squares, triangles, and other basic shapes to create patterns that were both aesthetically pleasing and structurally sound.

The geometric patterns used in Bauhaus design have had a lasting influence on the world of art and design, inspiring new generations of artists and designers to experiment with form and color.
