Augustine Schreuder-Gratama (1897-1978) was one of a handful of female architecture students at Delft University of Technology in her day. Her life path seems typical of many other talented and motivated women whose work has remained virtually invisible because they never graduated and had no opportunity to start their own practice or even pursue a paid profession. 

News

The collection of the Nieuwe Instituut contains drawings, photographs and models from the archives of Dutch architects and urban planners.

Projects

Sonneveld House Museum is one of the best-preserved homes built in the Dutch Functionalist style. It was designed in the 1930s by architecture office Brinkman and Van der Vlugt, renowned for the Van Nelle Factory and Feyenoord Stadium.  Sonneveld House shows how a prominent Rotterdam family embraced modernism, and how that choice coloured their everyday surroundings.
