Ludwig Mies van der Rohe
Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, born on 27th March
1886 and died on August 19th 1969 is a German and American
architect; He was known as one of the pioneering masters of modern architecture
in many of his post-World War I contemporaries, where he established a new
architectural style that could represent modern times just as Classical and
Gothic did for their own eras. He then created an influential 20th
century architectural style with clarity and simplicity and used modern
materials like steel and plated glass to build his mature buildings made use to
define interior spaces. He then
used minimal frameworks of structural order to balance it against the implied freedom
of free-flowing open space. He called his buildings "skin and bones"
architecture. His architectural
style would guide the creative process of architectural design and is known for
his use of the aphorisms "less is more" and "God is in the
details".
This is Ludwig Mies van der Rohe chair design called the Barcelona chair.
I chose this chair because he designed the steel bars as swirly and curvy and
also made the legs flat.
