BROEKHUIZEN, DOLF ; VAN STRAATEN, EVERT ; VAN BERGEIJK, HERMAN - ROBERT VAN 'T HOFF / ARCHITECT OF A NEW SOCIETY.

NL, Nai., 2010 Hardbound, 23x23cm, 168pp. Geillustreerd. Text in English. ISBN 9056627503. ¶ As he no longer worked as an architect after 1945, Van ?t Hoff has left behind only a modest body of work. His major works date back to the 1910s, after a trip to America in 1914 where he met Frank Lloyd Wright. By then, he had already completed his training as an architect in England and created his first designs. Wright provided the inspiration for a more abstract type of architecture. In 1914, Van ?t Hoff designed Villa Henny in Huis ter Heide, which became known as the first concrete house in the Netherlands, ?The first and likewise autonomous framing of Wright's architectural concept in the Netherlands.? (1) After becoming acquainted with Theo van Doesburg and J.J.P. Oud, he joined the avant-garde movement De Stijl in 1917.
