	Amsterdam School - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Amsterdam School (Dutch: Amsterdamse School) is a style of architecture that arose in the early part of the 20th Century in The Netherlands.
		In 1905 Amsterdam was the first city to establish a building code, and the city hired Johan van der Mey afterwards, in the special position as "Aesthetic Advisor", to bring artistic unity and vision to its built environment.
		The Scheepvaarthuis is the prototype for Amsterdam School work: brick construction with complicated masonry, traditional massing, and the integration of an elaborate scheme of building elements (decorative masonry, art glass, wrought ironwork, spatial grammar, and especially integrated figurative sculpture) that embodies and expresses the identity of the building.

	The Spaarndam Housing Blocks
		Amsterdam School was not a movement with a clear philosophy, nor did it have a recognized leader.
		When the cultural climate that had been so fertile for the Amsterdam School altered in the second half of the 1920s, and the protagonists changed their professional orientation, the most radical qualities of that architectural vocabulary progressively disappeared and the Amsterdam School ceased to flourish.
		Amsterdam had 270,000 inhabitants in 1870, in 1900 the number doubled, and in 1920 there were 680,000 people.

		There, several architects of similar artistic temperament, and beliefs, generated work that was labeled "The Amsterdam School." The group left an extraorduinary aesthetic imprint that is still strongly visible in the city.
		MICHEL DE In 1898, while visiting a primary school, the architect Edward Cuypers was so taken with the drawing skills of the then 14-year-old De Klerk that he immediately transported the youth to his office.
		With the completion of his three housing blocks in the Spaarndammerbuurt, the fame of the Amsterdam School was assured: architects the world over came to see these landmark structures.

	Expressionism and the Amsterdam School (ca. 1910-1930)

		The Arts and Crafts Movement was a philosophy and state of mind, rather than an art movement like Art Nouveau and Art Déco. Originating in mid-19th century England, with John Ruskin and William Morris, it was a rebellion against the encroaching soulless industrialization of the decorative arts.
		The Amsterdam School's foreign influence was neither Celtic nor Japanese, (as with the British,) but Indonesian, where the Muslim artists of the Dutch East India colonies created their decorative arts with geometric abstractions.
		Brooches were the most popular items of the Amsterdam School jewelry, discreetly set with small cabochons.
