The history of design, understood here as a language, has been marked by revolutions. The genesis of design occurred during the Industrial Revolution, but it was in the period between the two Great Wars of the 20th century that the Bauhaus School defined the field, enabling it to be understood and acted upon professionally. Influenced by the Vienna Circle, the Frankfurt School and the Prague School, this institution defined design and modern aesthetic language. The aim of this paper is to analyze the contribution of the Bauhaus to the revolution in design aesthetics and, consequently, modern aesthetic language. In addition to validating the historical moment, this work presents an analysis of two chairs (one from Art Noveau and the other from the Bauhaus) and a contemporary interior design project, making it possible to see that what was developed at this school broke previous aesthetic paradigms and became a symbol of modernity, an aesthetic language that did not exist before its time.
