Het Nieuwe Instituut (HNI, English: The New Institute) is a cultural centre in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. It focuses on architecture, design and digital culture. HNI is in a building designed by Jo Coenen at Museumpark 25 in the centre of Rotterdam, adjacent to the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen. As well as being a building containing a shop, exhibition space, study centre and archive, the site includes the Sonneveld House Museum, a pond and a small park.

Formation

Het Nieuwe Instituut (HNI) was formed in 2013, when Halbe Zijlstra ordered the merger of the Dutch institutes for architecture, design and e-culture.[1] Thus the Netherlands Architecture Institute, Premsela Dutch Platform for Design and Fashion and the Virtueel Platform were put together in the building at Museum Park 25, which was designed by Jo Coenen (and opened by Queen Beatrix in 1993).[1][2]

Facilities

At HNI, exhibitions are presented in the Museum of Architecture, Design and Digital Culture.[3] The building also contains the national collection for Dutch architecture and urban planning, an agency, a study centre, a bookshop and a cafe.[4] The archive contains over 18 kilometres of architectural resources.[2] This includes the personal collections of many Dutch architects.[2]

Sonneveld House Museum

The house was designed by Johannes Brinkman and Leendert van der Vlugt, who also constructed the Van Nelle Factory and it is an example of Nieuwe Zakelijkheid architecture. It was owned by Albertus Sonneveld, who lived there from 1933 to 1955.[5]
