A visit to the Rietveld Schroder House in Utrecht, NL, remains a fascinating experience. It was designed by Gerrit Rietveld for Truus Schroder in 1924. As Rietveld’s client she had a great influence on the result. This house is the only building ever realized on the basis of the architectural principles of De Stijl. Typical features are the use of the Stijl colours red, blue and yellow, in combination with white, grey and black, the relation between interior and exterior and the unity between the free-standing pieces of furniture and the fitted parts of the interior. According to Rietveld and Schroder one had to have an active attitude to life.
For them too living in a home is a conscious act. The furnishing of the house reflects this conviction. The occupant has to perform a transaction for every activity: the bathroom is created by opening out a wall, while the sleeping areas could be screened off with sliding walls, and privacy was obtained by placing shutters in front of the windows. The house is literally a machine for living in.
After the death of Truus Schroder in 1985 the house became the property of the Rietveld Schroderhuis Foundation that in turn entrusted it to the Centraal Museum to administer once it had been restored. It has been open to the public since 1987. At the end of 2000 UNESCO placed it on the World Heritage List as an important and unique icon in Western architectural history and a masterpiece of human creativity. The Schroder House occupies a key position in Rietveld’s work.
brown house, front
Hmm. So the front only has awnings, but the back and the other side have windows with shutters.
We'd like to do a cute color scheme (eventually), like white with red shutters? But then there is the gray/brown stone on the porch to think about. I'm stumped. What would make this house look less ugly?
