Architecture has evolved considerably since the 20s, featuring dramatically more abstract shapes and organic curves, as well as greater use of modern materials.

To the extent that Bauhaus style buildings also continue to be built, it's mainly because concrete rectangles happen to be an appealing option for clients who are cost-conscious and mainly interested in the utilitarian aspects of a building, like low-rent apartment blocks, public schools, industrial facilities, etc.
