Bauer is the newest chic bar and eatery in Södermalm — “Stockholm’s Soho.” Opened on February 28, 2008, Bauer is a refurbished neighborhood watering hole on Götgatan’s northern end, an edgy-stylish area constantly changing and looking for a new form. Suitably, the job of designing Bauer was handed to Stockholm-based Dizel&Slate, known for aptly fusing street-art subculture with upscale style for retail and hospitality clients, including Hotel Birger Jarl, and stores for H&M, Hugo Boss and Peak Performance. Bold walls are their signature feature. For Bauer, they took inspiration from the Bauhaus style and from Berlin’s bar and gallery culture. Bold, graphic images depicting various forms of enjoyment achieve a casual and fun feel while punching up the black-and-white space and furnishings. By Tuija Seipell
