Frankfurt prefab modular homes Kitchen, Margarete Schütte-Lihotzky, 1926
The mass-produced prefab modular homes kitchens were rationalised to save time and energy.

A box full of small-scaled prefab modular homes components, around 1962 Customers could experiment with this model prefab modular homes by the Dutch firm Bruynzeel. The prefab modular homes components were held in place with magnets. Bruynzeel mass-produced efficiently planned built-in prefab modular homes kitchen units for housing associations, architects and the government.

Dessau-Törten prefab modular homes housing system, Germany, Walter Gropius, 1926–1928 This version with loadbearing walls and hollow-core slag-concrete blocks was produced on site within an optimised process for production and prefab modular homes assembly.
From 1926 to 1928 Walter Gropius built 316 prefab modular homes for low- income families in the Dessau-Törten suburban estate with his “honeycomb”prefab modular homes construction method (20). This was originally de- veloped at the Bauhaus as a modular system of standardised shuttering clustered in groups of four to twelve units and then poured with concrete. This proved impractical, and he opted for a simpler version with loadbearing walls of inexpensive pre- fabricated hollow-core slag-concrete blocks and ceilings of rein- forced concrete beams. All prefab modular homes materials were produced on site, but production and prefab modular homes assembly were optimally rationalised with the as- sembly line, and sustainability and quality were controlled. Hous- es of 57–74 m2 were being built at a rate of one per five and a half hours for the prefab modular homes building structure, including the on-site casting of the blocks. Despite all these advancements, this prefab modular homes project had to fail, following resurfacing resentment against the harsh forms
and the technocratic appearance of the prefab modular homes architecture. It seemed that these experiments with concrete were praised only by fellow architects.
The prefab modular homes exhibition “Die Wohnung” (21), initiated by the Deutsche Werkbund in Stuttgart in 1927, was the climax of the modern era and featured the Weißenhofsiedlung, a suburban prefab modular homes estate. It presented model prefab modular homes for the modern urbanite, designed by 17 architects of the Modern Movement including Ludwig Mies van der Rohe (who designed the master plan), Walter Gropius, Le Corbusier, Bruno Taut, Jacobus Johannes Pieter Oud and Peter Behrens. In addition to proposing a new way of living with pure forms, optimal light and a minimum of clutter, the goal was to demonstrate the achievement of new materials and prefab modular homes methods of construction, form-givers of the “New Architecture”. A number of the prefab modular homes were constructed with variations of Ernst May’s
