Rietveld Schröder House

  Rietveld Schröder House, located at the corner of Prins Hendriklaan and Van Vollenhovenlaan in Utrecht, serves as a prime example of De Stijl architecture. Completed in 1924, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is notable for its innovative use of open spaces and colorful geometric forms, designed by architect Gerrit Rietveld to reflect the principles of modernist design. The house emphasizes flexibility and a harmonious relationship between the interior and exterior, featuring movable walls and a striking use of color.
