Poster newsstand

In 1924, Herbert Bayer designed seven innovative advertising structures, including the newspaper kiosk and the cigarette kiosk, which are now housed in the Bauhaus Archive in Berlin. These visionary designs represent groundbreaking advertising techniques: large-scale color compositions, graphic symbols, and illuminated advertisements towered above comparatively small kiosks. Bayer also experimented with film projections, neon signs, sound installations, and even smoke-like letters. The designs are primarily graphic visions whose practical implementation was unrealistic at the time. In addition to the newspaper kiosk, the cigarette kiosk is also available as a poster.
