Babies Balconies Fitted Flats Friendly Modernism Netherlands Special Deco
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the 1930s, showcases a unique and innovative architectural solution for modern urban living in the Netherlands - Balconies for Babies. In this image, we see a row of sleek, Art Deco and Modernist apartment buildings, each fitted with a special balcony design, specifically created to accommodate a baby's cot. These balconies, a testament to the forward-thinking approach of the time, were designed to provide city-dwelling families with a touch of nature and fresh air for their infants, while also ensuring their safety. The buildings, with their clean lines, geometric shapes, and minimalist aesthetic, reflect the prevailing Modernist and Art Deco architectural styles of the era. The use of large windows, open spaces, and the integration of greenery into the design further emphasize the emphasis on light, air, and nature in these modern flats. This photograph offers a glimpse into the history of domestic architecture in the Netherlands during the 1930s, a time when innovative solutions were sought to address the challenges of urban living. The Balconies for Babies concept not only provided families with a practical and functional living space but also added a touch of charm and character to the buildings, making them a beloved part of the community. As we admire this photograph, we are transported back in time, imagining the joy and contentment of families as they tended to their babies on these child-friendly balconies, surrounded by the beauty of their modern, urban homes.
