Bauplay was born out of our successful first game, Bautype, whose name comes from “Bau“ (German for ”construction") and "Type" (English for "typography").

The project began when Eva Kaluzova, artist, co-founder of Bauplay and creator of this game painted a typography inspired by the Bauhaus, the cradle of design, and other famous artists such as Kandinsky or Miró. But the idea did not stop there and he decided, together with Xavi Alonso, a communicator and graphic designer, to digitise this typography to turn it into a modular, artistic and creative game.

Then came the “maker” phase in which the prototype and the first games were handmade, and we got down to work!

From a small workshop with a very reduced production we took an important step to make Bautype known through the crowdfunding platform. Verkami and we achieved our goal.

But we don't stop there! We keep working and inventing to bring more creative games to entertain, educate and help those in need, and we owe that to you.
