This is a on Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. Mies is a pioneering figure in Modern Architecture. His concepts of free flowing spaces and simplified architecture have made major contributions to architectural philosophies, and become his greatest legacy. His famous phrase, “Less is More” has become the essence of mid 20th Century architecture, and a classic signifier of Modernist Architecture and Minimalism.
In “Looking for Mies”, the stage itself is a universal space, containing different combinations of sets and lights, with different stories taking place on it. Mies said, “God is in the details”. The concept of universal space is not a space for architecture only but a personal space within. And a lot of thoughts and ideas could be developed within this space.
