Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, who emigrated to the US in 1938, was one of the foremost architects of the 20th century. His work includes the German pavillion for the International Exhibition at Barcelona, for which he designed his famous Barcelona chair and the steel and glass Seagram Building in New York, built with Philip Johnson. Featuring colour photographs of exteriors and interiors, detailed plans, layouts and brief, comprehensive texts, each volume in this series highlights the work of a 20th-century architect. The series is intended to provide an easy reference for work, school or leisure.
