Projet
CI005.S1.1926.PR1
Description:
In 1925 committee members from trade, shipping and commerce, in partnership with Rotterdam city council, initiated the competition for the design of a new stock exchange building. The jury consisted of three architects, as well as two members of the Exchange committee. Oud's submission to the Rotterdam Exchange competition included designs for the new building and surrounding urban area, although his entry was unsuccessful. Oud created a functional and non-symbolic design based on a three-dimensional grid (Taverne et al. 2001, 350-354). Project series includes drawings of plans for the exchange as well as photographs of the drawings.

Description:
The competition for the design of the new Amsterdam Town Hall was held in 1936 and overseen by several jurists. Oud's submission was disappointing as his entry was criticized by a fellow jurist and he was not among the four finalist who were selected to modify their plans. Oud's entry in 1937 featured a court surrounded by three office wings, another office wing for the council chamber and a formal main entrance, as well as a tower in the courtyard (Taverne et al. 2001, 409-410). Project series includes photographs of plans for Oud's competition entry for the Amsterdam Town Hall.
