| Rietveld-Schroder House, Utrecht
1924. Rietveld, working with building materials which possess physical weight,
makes them weightless, so that new interrelati-onships can be established
and the new aims be achie-ved.These seem tobe a sort of objective compo-sition
of planes and lines.The space is exploited to the full. |
The idea underlying the design
of the house culminates in the glass-enclosed corner of the living story.
Thanks to the open corner, you are not, when inside,separated from the
outside world, you are in the middle of it. H.
Hertzberger
