Rietveld Schröder House, De Stijl style house museum in Utrecht, Netherlands
The Rietveld Schröder House incorporates geometric forms and primary colors through a series of sliding walls and flexible living spaces across two floors.
Architect Gerrit Rietveld designed this residence in 1924 for Truus Schröder-Schräder, who wanted a modern home that would reflect her progressive family values.
The house represents a physical manifestation of De Stijl movement principles, integrating architecture with interior design through modular and adaptable spaces.
Visitors need advance reservations to tour the house museum, which opens Tuesday through Sunday from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM with guided tours available.
The upper floor features movable partition walls that transform separate rooms into one open space, creating different configurations for various daily activities.
