Huis Sonneveld: an interior as a whole

Huis Sonneveld on the Jongkindstraat shows a villa interior with Gispen furniture, colour and attention to how a home is furnished. The audio tour adds stories about the residents and the architecture.

Plan your visit ↗

Letting rooms work together

Look at how the furniture and layout relate to each other. The whole can tell you more about the chosen furnishings than a single chair or cupboard; take in the transitions between rooms too.

Listening and looking

Use the audio tour to look at details again. An explanation about a room can shift your attention to something that previously seemed mainly part of the background.

Combining with the institute

Huis Sonneveld is linked to Het Nieuwe Instituut and can be visited with a combination ticket. On Thursdays, however, the house closes earlier than the institute itself.

Before you go

The house is not wheelchair or pushchair friendly. Ask about the digital alternative on the ground floor and do not assume Het Nieuwe Instituut’s Thursday evening opening applies.
