1925- Einheitslok standardised rail Steam engines built in Germany after 1925 under the direction of the Deutsche Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft were manufactured making extensive use of standard design features and components.

1928- Futura Font created Created in Germany in 1928, it displayed the core of the Bauhaus ideology: strictly geometric outline, lacking any embellishments and just barely conforming to the historical shapes of letters.
