In "Rietveld meubels om zelf te maken" zijn tot in detail de bekendste en meest kenmerkende meubelontwerpen van Gerrit Rietveld gedocumenteerd. Het boek bevat werktekeningen, maten, details, materiaalstaten en aanwijzingen voor het in elkaar zetten alsmede historische gegevens van elk behandeld meubel.
Deze editie is aanzienlijk uitgebreid ten opzichte van die uit 1986. Er zijn twaalf meubels toegevoegd, zodat het totaal nu op 35 komt. Naast 'highlights' die nog ontbraken - zoals het vermaarde en gecompliceerde buffet uit 1919 - zijn ook minder bekende werken opgenomen en enkele meubels uit de door Rietveld zelf samengestelde serie 'meubels om zelf te maken'.
In dit boek komt een breed scala aan Rietveld meubels beschikbaar voor de zelfbouwer: diverse stoelen (natuurlijk ook de vermaarde Roodblauwe), tafels en tafeltjes, kasten, kindermeubilair, banken, lampen, bureaus en een dozenkast.
Door zelf meubels van Rietveld te maken doorloopt men de maatverhoudingen, de stabiliteit, de verbindingen en montagevolgorde van de kleinste knoop tot de ruimtelijkheid van het uiteindelijke meubel. Alsof het maken van, zitten op en kijken naar het meubel weer net zo met elkaar verbonden zijn als het bij Rietveld tot stand kwam.
"How to construct Rietveld furniture" documents the best known and most typical furniture designs by Gerrit Rietveld down the smallest detail. The book contains working plans, measurements, detail drawings, lists of materials and instructions for the assembly of each piece, as well as historical information about each one.
This new edition is considerably expanded from the 1986 edition. Twelve items of furniture have been added, so that there are now in total 35. In addition to 'highlights' that were not in the original edition, such as the famous but complicated 1919 buffet, less well-known items have also been added, including several pieces from Rietveld's own 'furniture you can make yourself' series.
This book makes a wide range of Rietveld furniture available for the home constructor, including various chairs (of course including the famous Red-Blue), tables and side tables, bookcases, children's furniture, benches, lamps, desks and a stacking sectional cabinet.
In constructing Rietveld's furniture designs for yourself, one moves through the proportions, stability, joining techniques and assembly order from the smallest knob to the sculptural qualities of the ultimate furniture, in the same way that making, sitting in and looking at furniture were linked with each other when Rietveld made them.
