Bauhaus from 1919-1933 originated in Germany and used grids, the golden ratio, rounded edges, and precise geometric typography. Art Deco from 1925-1940 was inspired by Cubism and featured extravagant details, sharp angles, natural elements, and dramatic stretched letters. Swiss Design from the 1950s used grids, white space, and sans serif typography within a geometric structure following the golden ratio. Pop Art
