Paulette Bernège (1896 – 25 November 1973) was a French journalist, publicist and author who specialized in housework and home economics.
She was a pioneer in applying scientific principles to the study of housework and to the design of living spaces and appliances that would make this work more efficient.
She thought housework should be measured, analyzed and organized for efficiency in the same way as factory work.
Domestic appliances should be used to reduce labor and the home layout should minimize the need to move from one spot to another.
Although her ideal home was too expensive for most people in the period before World War II (1939–45), her work led to more efficient designs in French apartments and houses built after the war.
