Timeless Home Design: 4 Modernist Ideas
Step inside the Sonneveld House, a stunning example of modernist architecture from the 1930s! This home, built in the Nieuwe Bouwen style, was ahead of its time with integrated technology, bold colour choices, flexible living spaces, and steel furniture — all concepts that still shape home design today. The Sonneveld House (Huis Sonneveld) in Rotterdam is part of the Nieuwe Instituut, which is just a two-minute walk away.
-
While there are lockers at the Sonneveld House, there are no toilets—you’ll need to use the facilities at the Nieuwe Instituut.
-
The Museum Card is accepted. Otherwise, tickets cost €12 (just for the Sonneveld House) or €18 (a combi ticket for the Sonneveld House and the Nieuwe Instituut). Children and those under 18 can enter for free.
