Ludwig Mies van der Rohe

DE · 18861969

German-American modernist who directed the Bauhaus and later headed architecture at IIT in Chicago. His aphorism 'less is more' and steel-and-glass aesthetic defined corporate modernism. His writings and Berlin work deeply influenced Rem Koolhaas, who in turn mentored Korea's Cho Min-suk.
