More than a painted wall
The display uses primary colours and clean-lined surfaces. As you go round, pay attention to the transition from one room to the next. A colour has a different effect when you see it next to a door, corner or window than in a separate picture.
The scale of domestic life
It is precisely the house itself that gives the subject a recognisable scale. You move through the rooms and can see the interior from different positions. The explanation helps you connect the colour choices with the ideas the museum wants to explain.
Start at the museum ticket desk
Admission is arranged through Museum Dr8888 on the Museumplein. The house itself is on the Torenstraat. Plan these two addresses into your route deliberately, even if you are only coming for the house.
