What is Bauhaus?

​

The Bauhaus movement was born in Germany in 1919 as both a design school and a philosophy that blended function with form. It rejected ornamentation in favor of clean lines, geometric shapes, and a limited color palette—typically featuring primary colors, black, white, and neutrals.

 

The goal was to make art and design accessible to everyday life, which is something I carry into every Arteema print and pillow. Whether it's a bold, simplified composition or a piece that balances color and structure, my Bauhaus-inspired designs offer a strong visual statement while remaining versatile for modern interiors.

 

What is Boho?

​

Boho—short for Bohemian—is a style that embraces freedom, creativity, and global influences. It became popular in the 1960s and 70s, but its roots trace back even further, drawing from various cultures, artisan traditions, and nature-inspired elements.

 

Boho design is known for its layered textures, warm earth tones, natural materials, and a sense of relaxed eclecticism. In my shop, you’ll find Boho-inspired pieces that evoke softness, spontaneity, and organic beauty—perfect for cozy living spaces, bedrooms, or creative corners.

 

How These Styles Influence My Work

​

While Bauhaus and Boho are visually quite different, they both speak to intentionality—a thoughtful approach to what we surround ourselves with. That’s exactly what I aim to create: pieces that don’t just fill a space, but add meaning, texture, and energy to it.

 

My prints and pillows are professionally produced from original artworks that explore these themes through abstract form, color interaction, and compositional balance. Whether minimalist or expressive, each design is created per order to elevate your home in a way that feels personal and artful.

​

Tips for Incorporating These Styles at Home

​

• For a Bauhaus vibe: Choose artwork with bold lines, contrast, and structure. Pair it with furniture in neutral tones or primary accents.

• For a Boho atmosphere: Mix and match prints and textiles in earthy palettes. Use natural textures like wood, rattan, or linen to bring out the warmth.

• Blending the two: Don’t be afraid to combine styles! A Boho pillow on a structured, minimalist chair—or a Bauhaus print above a textured bedspread—can create beautiful balance.
