This German-born architect is known for his modernist creations like the S. R. Crown Hall and Farnsworth House...both are considered some of his finest work and way ahead of their time when you consider they were built in 1956 and 1944 respectively...after Mies relocated to America in 1937.
Google celebrated today with one of their famous logos of the Crown Hall....
And Farnsworth House has been imortalised in true Lego style....
Mies will also be remembered for some of the most iconic furniture pieces of the last century...
His Barcelona chair was designed in 1929...!
Just take a look at these serene interiors, featuring Mies furniture, to truly appreciate his 'less is more' design philosphy...
