La Cuina de Frankfurt (1926 – 2026). Disseny i gènere a lespai domèstic'

The Frankfurt Kitchen, designed by the Austrian architect Margarete Schütte-Lihotzky in 1926, is one of the most significant examples of the convergence of the scientific organisation of work, the social policies of the interwar period and the rationalist principles of the modern movement. At the same time, it marked the beginning of a broader process: the application of industrial production methods to the domestic sphere. Through industrial, graphic and architectural design, the modern home redefined domestic work, the role of women and the ways of living, generating debates about efficiency, emancipation and control that remain relevant a century later. Coinciding with the centenary of the Frankfurt Kitchen (1926–2026), this exhibition proposes to explore this historical process in order to discover how design helped shape the material and social culture of contemporary domestic space.
