SAM

Before it became Haus, it was Baus.

Home is often one of the very first places a child learns to name.

For a little while, Baus was the only word that mattered. A beautifully imperfect childhood word that captures the warmth, comfort and sense of belonging found within the walls of home.

Inspired by a real German childhood word, this Archive Piece celebrates one fleeting moment of childhood, preserving a precious family memory as timeless minimalist art.
