This building designed by Mies Van Der Rohe was a symbol of German architecture representative of spatial use and the influence it had on the world. The building has beautiful marble accenting the transparent glass that captures the various use of space by Mies Van Der Rohe. The empty space was meant as something to be enjoyed in tranquility by the people who came to visit the building. Encountering this building causes captivation as the impressive design of the building captures elegance and beauty in a sleek manner. I find the building to be awe inspiring and shows the manner of how Mies Van Der Rohe utilized high quality materials, transparent materials, and large open spaces to show creativity.
