Résumé:
A Hundred Years of Dutch Architecture reconstructs the frames of reference within which Dutch architects operated in the century that has just ended. It exhaustively documents twenty buildings and complexes on the basis of the original drawings. Each of these projects embodies a 'take' on a particular architectural issue and serves as a crystallization point for five approaches - traditionalist, expressionist, functionalist, rationalist and postmodern - that can be distilled from the welter of design strategies. The significance both social and designwise of the five architectural strands is explored in as many essays before moving on to the documentation. A removable 'Calendar' traces the lines of development of Dutch architecture in a clear and easy-to-follow form. One hundred characteristic architectural works - one for each year - are placed against a backdrop of the technical and social developments. Among the projects documented at length in this book are designs by Berlage, De Klerk, Rietveld, Dudok, Oud, Friedhoff, Van Eyck, Hertzberger, Koolhaas and Coenen.
