A single-weight geometric display face by Marcus Sterz, built on Bauhaus principles and designed so that repeating letterforms generate interlocking decorative patterns.
About
Hausbau distils the Bauhaus obsession with circle, square and triangle into a display alphabet whose letters are constructed entirely from elementary geometric units. The design's central conceit is repetition: individual characters are shaped so that sequences and grids of them produce seamless tessellating patterns. With only a Regular weight, the typeface is purpose-built for graphic and decorative applications rather than extended text setting.
Classification
A radical geometric display typeface inspired by Bauhaus experimentation, constructed from simple geometric forms designed to interlock and tile when letters are repeated, placing it firmly in the display category rather than functional text use.
