Why Rietveld Schroder House matters
With its flat planes, primary colours and sliding walls, the Rietveld Schröder House looked like nothing else when it was built in the 1920s. It was designed with a client, Truus Schröder, who lived there for decades. Guided visits show how the movable partitions transform the upper floor. Design fans will love it.
