Looking for something different to decorate your abode? Perhaps it's time to consider adding Bauhaus wallpaper to really make your home pop. Established in 1919 by Walter Gropius, the Bauhaus style takes a pinch of the arts and crafts movement and gives it a midcentury modern spin. When it comes to architecture and furniture, the style is quite functional. However, there is an element of playfulness in Bauhaus decor — fun shapes and interesting colors are firmly in the mix. Take a look at these wallpaper prints to see the trend in action.
