A treasure trove of Dutch architecture
The Netherlands Architecture Institute (NAI) acquires and manages archives encompassing all areas of Dutch architecture. This site offers you an overview of the Institute’s rich and specialised collection, which can rightfully be called a treasure trove of Dutch architecture. More than one hundred pieces from the collection are featured – drawings, models, books and photographs selected on the basis of their particular beauty or rarity. Important and ground-breaking theoretical construction projects are discussed alongside books with tips for designing your home. This cross-section of the collection offers you an overview of two hundred years of architecture in the Netherlands.
