A Study on the Color-Plasticity of G. Rietveldfocused on furniture design and Schrder House |
Abstract |
This study is to present the design methods in the Schrder House executed by the Dutch architect G. Th. Rieveld. The plastic principles which underlies the architecture design are examined through the analysis of the `new structural joint system(Cartesian Coordinate System)` and `Color-Plasticity` which characterized a series of his furniture design from 1918 to 1924. It indicates that Rietveld attempted to realize the simplicity, clarity and flexibility of spatial expression in his first independent architecture by the application of technical skills which have been developed in his early days. |
