CI005.S1.1915.PR3
Description:
As construction stagnated during the First World War, Oud drew plans for various public buildings as an exercise in design and/or as competition entries for public building projects. In response to a 1914 competition for a senior's home, Oud designed a central main building for communal activities, along with two adjoining residence wings. Oud attempted to design a main building that was suggestive of a country house. Although his design was never built, some of Oud's competition entries were published and allowed him to experiment stylistically (Taverne et al. 2001,105). Project series includes Oud's drawings of elevations and floorplans as well as 1 photograph of a drawing.
