Welcome Skateboards has unveiled a unique collaboration with iconic post-punk band Bauhaus. This limited-edition collection fuses the world of skateboarding with Bauhaus's distinctive aesthetic, creating a tribute to the band’s influential legacy.
Known for pioneering the gothic and post-punk genres, Bauhaus has profoundly impacted music and culture since its debut. The band’s signature sound, marked by eerie atmospheres and innovative style, continues to inspire across various artistic fields. Welcome Skateboards, renowned for its creative and boundary-pushing designs, brings Bauhaus's darkly poetic visuals to a new medium.
The collaboration features a series of skate decks and apparel adorned with rare artwork from Bauhaus’s archives, complemented by original illustrations from Welcome’s founder, Jason Celaya. The collection captures the essence of Bauhaus’s iconic imagery, including elements inspired by lead singer Peter Murphy’s distinctive presence and the surreal art of the band’s album covers.
“This collaboration is a tribute not only to Bauhaus’s music but also to their broader cultural impact,” said Celaya. “Bauhaus has profoundly influenced how I view art, music, and style.”
In July, Welcome Skateboards released a collaboration with Britney Spears.
The Bauhaus x Welcome Skateboards collection is available now on the Welcome Skateboards website and at select retailers globally.
