CI005.S1.1914.PR3
Description:
In 1914, the Society for the Advancement of Architecture, with architect H.P. Berlage acting as jury member, held a competition for the design of its public baths. Although Oud did not submit his designs, he created plans for a bathhouse with three round-arch portals. The design was for a fairly simple and functional symmetrical building. He considered his design as indebted to Hendrik Petrus Berlage’s Stock Exchange (Taverne et al. 2001, 109). The project series includes a photograph of Oud's plan for Public Baths.
