Some 1700 items from the archive of Piet Zwart have recently been digitised. Piet Zwart (1885-1977) was a leading figure in the modernist avant-garde of the 1920s and 1930s.

Total Space, based on two research workshops organized in 2015, investigates the international dimensions of Structuralism.

There will be limited access to Sonneveld House from 22 September to 30 October while essential restoration work is carried out in the living and dining rooms.

From 13 September 2015 to 8 May 2016 Het Nieuwe Instituut is transforming itself into a Temporary Fashion Museum.

The acquisition of the private archive of Jo Vegter, architect and Chief Government Architect between 1958 and 1971, happens when the Netherlands is awaiting the appointment of a new Chief Architect.

This publication presents documentation compiled by the Jaap Bakema Study Centre as a reflection upon the installations by Andreas Angelidakis and Inside Outside / Petra Blaisse produced by the Nieuwe Instituut as part of its exhibition programme in 2015. With contributions by Floor van Ast, Guus Beumer, Dirk van den Heuvel, Marten Kuijpers, Andreas Angelidakis, Petra Blaisse, Hetty Berens, and Patrick Healy.

In 2011, Het Nieuwe Instituut established the first contact with architect Max van Huut about the donation of the archives of the architectural firm Alberts and Van Huut. Now, four years later, the acquisition and inventory of this archive is completed.

Het Nieuwe Instituut's photo collection contains a large number of photographs of architects: at the drawing board, on a study trip, giving a lecture, in a meeting, or on holiday.

We now recognise the architecture exhibition as a medium of its own, including its own history. It cannot therefore be treated as a neutral vehicle for the presentation of best practices, the dissemination of innovative ideas, or for the propagation of a singular architectural style or ideology.
