Rietveld Schröderhuis (Rietveld Schröder House)
The Rietveld-Schröder House in Utrecht was commissioned by Mrs. Truus Schröder-Schräder and designed by architect Gerrit Thomas Rietveld and completed in 1924. With its interior decoration, flexible spatial layout and visual and formal qualities, this small family house became a manifesto of the ideals of Dutch De Stijl artists and architects in the 1920s and has since been regarded as one of the icons of the modern architectural movement.
Former Residence of Zhang Zizhong
Zhang Zizhong's Former Residence is a two-story Western-style building with a brick-wood structure (partially three-story). The upper and lower inner corridors are supported by columns in front of the building, and there are symmetrical convex polygonal rooms on both sides of the building. In 1936, Zhang Zizhong bought this vacant land in the name of "Qing'an Hall" and built this building. The facade of the house follows a modern minimalist style, using local materials from Tianjin, and the shape is simple and unpretentious. Zhang Zizhong was the highest-ranking Chinese general who died on the front line during the Anti-Japanese War, and was posthumously awarded the title of Army General. Zhou Enlai wrote a eulogy for Zhang Zizhong, saying: "His loyalty and heroic spirit can be regarded as the soul of Chinese soldiers in the Anti-Japanese War."
