Ruimte in kleur (Room in colors) built by Constant and Aldo van Eyck for the exhibition Mens en Huis (Man and Home) from November 21 1952 to January 5, 1953 at the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam.

Voor een spatiaal colorisme (For a spatial colorism), the manifest by Constant and Aldo van Eijck is an experiment with space and color as a reaction to the passive role that color plays in modern architecture. Together they design a room for the exhibition Mens en huis (Man and home) which takes place from November 21st 1952 till January 5th 1953 at the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam.
