A detailed architectural engraving shows the "General Ground Plan" of the Trippenhuis. The right side depicts the main residence with various rooms labeled (kitchen, cellar, nursery, etc.) and specific measurements. The center and left portions of the plan show extensive gardens with geometric parterres and a fountain, flanked by stables and outbuildings. An alleyway labeled "exit to the New Work Street" leads from the top of the stables. A scale bar graduated from 10 to 80 is positioned above the main house.
