Deutsche Arbeitsfront
Schulte-Frohlinde was trained by Paul Bonatz and was part of his Stuttgart school. On the recommendation of Albert Speer, in 1934 Schulte-Frohlinde went to work under Robert Ley's German Labour Front (popularly known as the DAF, an abbreviation for "Deutsche Arbeitsfront"). The architect was named as the architect-director of the "Schönheit der Arbeit" (SdA, "Beauty of Work"), a DAF suborganization tasked to make workplaces more enticing to workers.
