Allgemeine Elektricitäts Gesellschaft (A.E.G.) was a German industrial manufacturing conglomerate founded in 1883 that became a pioneering force in modernist design and architecture. Though primarily an electrical engineering corporation, A.E.G. commissioned and produced visionary work across typography, industrial design, and graphic standards under the direction of Peter Behrens from 1907 onward. The company's output established foundational principles of corporate identity and functionalist aesthetics that influenced twentieth-century design practice.
