Modell und Ruine

Modell und Ruine serves as the digital hub for the Werkleitz Festival 2019, an artistic exploration of the Bauhaus legacy through contemporary lenses. The website functions as a curated guide for an exhibition circuit, program schedules, and festival documentation, bridging the gap between historical architectural theory and modern artistic production. The visual identity is unapologetically avant-garde, utilizing a high-contrast, monochromatic palette with a gritty, textured background that evokes the concept of 'ruin.' Bold, oversized typography dominates the layout, creating a sense of tension and scale that mirrors the festival's themes. The design language is experimental and intellectual, targeting an audience of artists, architects, and cultural enthusiasts who appreciate a brutalist, non-conformist aesthetic.
