Rietveld Re Newed Design Factory

The contribution of Gerrit Rietveld (1888-1964) to the Dutch design and architecture is equal to the phenomenal impact that Mondriaan had on the visual arts. RIETVELD'S RENEWED Design Factory presents the magnificent rebirth of the only factory that Gerrit Rietveld has ever built. Early 2017, just after the completion of the renovated Weverij De Ploeg in Bergeijk, the well-known architectural photographer Filip Dujardin made a report of this unique building which has now been fully reinstated. In Weverij de Ploeg, the idealists Gerrit Rietveld and Mien Ruys found their dream client, full of ambitious motives.
