In the 1920s, Frankfurt am Main became a centre of modern design. On the way to a new metropolitan culture, the city’s designers developed new forms for all areas of life encompassing fashion, interior, industrial, product and communication design. New Frankfurt was far more than just the well-known housing construction programme initiated by Ernst May. Starting in the 1920s, the big-city utopia was a universal vision, as the multi-faceted exhibition, curated by three Frankfurt museums, shows.
