This year marks the centenary of

Bauhaus, the iconic German art

school that had a profound impact on

modern design. The key style it produced

is minimalist with a focus on shape and colour,

often using monochrome and bold primaries. Try this

softer, more tranquil effect with pastel shades paired

with effortless linear and geometric shapes.
