Found a building that has the De Stijl look. We learned about this style in class a few weeks ago. We were very excited to have found this. If you’re unsure what ‘de stijl’ is, it literally translates to ‘the style’. It is influenced by cubist paintings and uses the same ‘square’ shaped pattern as cubist paintings. However, only white, black and the primary colors are used to create patterns and shapes. It’s interesting looking at translations of paintings into furniture and other objects.
