The National Collection contains about 1.4 million design drawings, which represent a variety of materials and techniques, including tracing paper, plastic foils and photographic reproduction techniques.

From family snapshots, holiday albums and pictures of study trips and construction sites, to the work of well-known (architectural) photographers, the hundreds of thousands of photos from the National Collection were created, collected or commissioned by architects.

The Van Doesburg collection is of great cultural-historical significance and is loaned out to museums at home and abroad more often than any other collection. It is of great importance that this collection remains fully accessible and safe to use.
