Description
Ludwig Mies van der Rohe was an architect who communicated his ideas with the same disciplined restraint as he developed his buildings. This book is a heterogeneous collection of writings, speeches, and interviews. Read together, they reveal the breadth of Mies' deep engagement with architecture and education in Germany and the USA. By including both written and spoken words, the co-editors reveal how Mies was able to extend his influence well beyond the classroom-studio and the profession to reach a general audience eager to learn more about his architectural philosophy during a time of great cultural and societal upheaval.
