Eat & sleep design Bauhaus style

Posted Apr 6, 2009

As this years marks the 90 year anniversary of German design school Bauhaus, visitors now have the opportunity to stay at the world famous design school. Swide explains how to wake-up to design.

Bauhaus has perhaps the greatest presence in Dessau, Germany than anywhere else and so it follows that this year - the party kicks off there with a whole host of events celebrating the world-famous design school.

Forthcoming events include a film exhibition "Bauhaus in Action" from June 8th to October 4th 2009 and an International Summer School “Bauhaus City – Get on site!” that will run from July 22nd  – July 31st.


 

Plus - as just experienced by Guardian journalist Hans Kundnani, it's now possible to in the school's former student quarters.  For reservations email kaatz@bauhaus-dessau.de. and to read more about staying at this design mecca see www.guardian.co.uk/travel/bauhaus-bed-and-breakfast.

If you can't quite face design for bed and breakfast - celebrate Bauhaus' 90th birthday instead with this Bauhaus bird house available at www.retrotogo.com/bauhaus-bird-house.
