Description:
The village of Hoek van Holland – which had been annexed to Rotterdam in 1914 – successfully appealed to the city council in 1923 to develop public housing to address the city's shortage of affordable housing. Oud was commissioned to sketch 40 dwellings for working class residents. The original plan consisted of three separate rows of housing, which were later amended to two two-storey rows of housing. City council sent back the plans with a request to change the facade, but in 1925 accepted the original design before construction began in 1927. The design comprehended 41 dwellings, a library, four warehouses and four shop fronts with unique curved facades (Taverne et al. 2001, 260-265). Project series includes photographs of facades and exteriors of housing as well as plans.

Description:
Because of the shortage of social housing for low income families in Rotterdam, the city commissioned the Kiefhoek housing scheme and invited Oud to assist with designing the dwellings. The plans underwent several revisions: it was reduced from the planned construction of 300 buildings in 1925, to 291 dwellings in 1928. The revised complex consisted of two units of shops and dwellings and one dwelling with a hotwater boiler, as well as two warehouses. Oud revised the plans to accommodate 300 dwellings on the chosen site, incorporating existing features, such as the church and public garden, into the site. The site features two symmetric and curved shops facing the central estate street (Taverne et al. 2001, 274-277). Project series includes drawings of plans for site and units as well as photographs of exterior and interior views of Kiefhoek Workers' housing.

Oud was one of several renown international architects invited to submit entries for the design of a hotel in the centre of Brno, Czechoslovakia. Ultimately the submitted entries never came to completion, although Oud's design was published in a contemporary journal. Oud's plans featured an eight-storey building, a smaller back section. The building would comprehend 28 rooms, with a ground floor that featured one wing with a swimming pool adjoined by a courtyard to a restaurant wing. Oud favoured a functional design to avoid competing with the area's surrounding historic buildings. (Taverne et al. 2001, 347). Project series includes Oud's plans for Hotel Stiassni.

Originally intended as an affordable housing project, the plans were later tailored to meet the needs of educated middle class citizens. The exhibition featured the experimental designs of various architects, experimenting with home economics and new building types and materials. When it opened in 1927, the Weissenhof estate comprehended 21 projects of 63 dwellings with Oud contributing designs for five identical terraced homes that were built (Taverne et al. 2001, 291-297).

The Kiefhoek housing scheme of 1925-1930 was initiated by the city of Rotterdam to provide affordable housing to working class residents. The Kiefhoek church of the Hersteld Apostolische Gemeente, or the New Apostolic Church, was intended as a communal space for residents of the Kiefhoek housing estate. Oud designed the church building, a verger's house and a green. The design includes a symmetrical orthogonal church hall and two blocks for the vestry and storage shed. Oud undertook the project without pay as he felt it was integral to the overall design of the complex. His original design consisted of a hippodrome-shaped building, which he later abandoned to create a unified dwelling, green and church (Taverne et al. 2001, 286-288). Project series includes drawings of plans for the Kiefhoek Church as well as photographs of the church's principle facade.

On the other han[d a]n organization of the public and constructed space in phases which allow to understand the technology area of the south as something complete and shaped since the first of them has been developed. The proposed exhibition pavillions [sic] come from a technical reasoning based in the balance of structural width, central light and drainage of the roof, a result of several projects of similar scale which the office has developed in the last years.” (ARCH270975) Abalos & Herreros initially grouped this project with the competition Fira 2000 - Barcelona (AP164.S1.2002.D14). Documenting the project are presentation drawings, project descriptions, correspondence, studies, competition documents and specifications.
