Summary
Details

Tuinsteden, written by Jan Bruinwold Riedel and published in 1906, explores the concept of garden cities. This Dutch-language book delves into the theory and practical application of creating self-contained communities surrounded by greenbelts, combining the benefits of urban and rural living. Riedel's work provides insights into the social and architectural considerations of designing these planned communities.

The book examines the potential of garden cities to address urban issues such as overcrowding and pollution, while also promoting a healthier and more harmonious way of life. Tuinsteden offers a valuable historical perspective on the garden city movement and its influence on urban planning in the Netherlands and beyond. It remains a relevant study for anyone interested in urban development, architecture, and the history of social reform movements.
