Actually the Rietveld house is not in Amsterdam, but in Utrecht. It's funny to see that the adjacent "old" houses were built after the modernistic Rietveld house.

I was staying with an artist lady in Hellevoetsluis who had an identical chair as can be found in that house, I was sure she said Amsterdam

At one point, my wife Els Vanassche (google her) had a number of her paintings on show in Hellevoetsluis in the gallery of an artist couple. Can't remember the name -- maybe because none were sold... ;-)
How many artist ladies live in such a relatively small town?

I had seen pictures of these before, but I have never seen them myself.

Of your pictures, I like the third one best, because of its concentration on the subject itself, without any distractions.

You could say the other buildings serve as contrast, but I like the simplicity of just the Cubes. We all know how other buildings look like, is a bit the reasoning behind my view that no contrast is needed.
Hope that makes sense.
