Unique Piece or Mass Product? @ Werkbundarchiv – Museum der Dinge, Berlin

Today industrially produced objects are so self-evident and ubiquitous it can be hard to believe there was a time when they weren’t.

There was.

With the exhibition Unique Piece or Mass Product? the Werkbundarchiv – Museum der Dinge Berlin explores the developments of industrial production in the early 20th century, the discussions and discourses which accompanied those developments and the connections between such developments and the evolution of both formal understandings and the role and function of designers.
