Redesign Rietveld

World-famous furniture designs
Redesign Rietveld (1888-1964) is about the world-famous furniture designs of Gerrit Rietveld and his influence. The exhibition consists of 60 fantastic models of designs by artists from all over the world who were inspired by Rietveld's work and then came up with their own variation. These designs have all been recreated on a scale of 1:3 by exhibition maker Harry Hoek of MH Expo.

Exceptional and renowned artists, such as Maarten Baas, Joost Swarte and Pieke Bergmans agreed to use their redesign in the exhibition, with the aim of encouraging young makers to start designing themselves. Get to know Rietveld's work through the eyes of others. And think for yourself, four planks and thirteen slats, how would you do it?
