“Preliminary design for the floor” is a pencil drawing on paper created by Theo van Doesburg in 1923. The artwork, produced in Germany, is part of the Neoplasticism art movement and falls under the genre of design.
The artwork exhibits a geometric composition consisting of various rectangles and squares arranged in a balanced manner. The color palette is subdued, featuring muted shades of white, grey, yellow, and brown, along with black lines that define and separate the shapes. The precise, grid-like pattern characteristic of Neoplasticism emphasizes simplicity and an abstract aesthetic.
