De 8 en Opbouw was the most significant avant-garde periodical of united Dutch architects from the major cities Amsterdam and Rotterdam in the 1930s. De 8 was the mouthpiece for the New Objectivity movement in architecture. It focused on architecture, interior design, various applied arts, criticism, and other related subjects. Collaborators included, among others: Paul Schuitema, who also designed many of the striking covers and layouts for numerous issues, the photographer and designer Piet Zwart, as well as many other architects and designers of iconic buildings and designs from the pre-war era.
