LUDWIG MIES VAN DER ROHE - (March 27, 1886 – August 17,
1969) was a German architect.
Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, along with Walter Gropius and Le
Corbusier, is widely regarded as one of the pioneering
masters of modern architecture. Mies, like many of his post
WW I contemporaries, sought to establish a new architectural
style that could represent modern times just as classical and
gothic did for their own eras. He created an influential
twentieth-century architectural style, stated with extreme
clarity and simplicity.
