Mies van der Rohe's McCormick House

[@ErikVestville-yv9md]

The Tugendhat House is not in Germany. It is in BRNO - Czech Republic, for which the BRNO Chair is famous. Please correct.

So cool to see this. My US apartment is around the corner from this building. Being from Germany its great to see the influence... love the music!

Mies Van Der Rohe - has set my standards in perceiving contemporary architecture.....his spacial thinking is contagious! A pioneer in uniting environment and building - he realized that landscape and building must blend - even if separated by glass...What a visionary! Thank you for posting this - it gives a full picture of Mies's progression of concept that is a guiding light for every architect - especially residential architects.❤️❤️❤️

I live in Baltimore's Highfield House, designed by Mies van der Rohe as an apartment building, now a condo. When it was a rental, the lack of income from the open area under the building forced conversion into a condominium. His window design looks great, but the daily noise from the expansion and contraction of window metal frames, lasting over several hours each day is disruptive. Van der Rohe seems not to have understood drainage. The vast plaza under the building looks like a Venetian lagoon during heavy rains due to minuscule drains. The building is currently replacing the entire concrete plaza and its membrane protecting rooms and the garage below. Thankfully this was begun before the catastrophic collapse of the condo building in Florida.

Fantastic.

A building whose walls are almost entirely made of glass, steel and aluminium is expensive to cool in summer and heat in winter. During the dog days of Chicago's summer, the temperature often exceeds 90F. During January nights, the temperature can fall below zero. Also see Laurence Smelser's comment below re Mies's failure to understand drainage, and the inevitable thermal expansion and contraction over the course of each day.

Interesting using Miles Davis as the intro for Mies. Their essences are the same: stillness at the core.

Tugendhat House 1930 Germany... GERMANY ???

[@michalmilko8347]

Are you really that ignorant that you tell us that Brno's Tugendhat vila is in Germany? Brno is located in Czech republic and in those times the country was called Czechoslovakia. It is completely different country than Germany.

What a stupid idea NOT ONLY jto turn a normal living house into a museum, but also to dismantle it moving it to another site where is never gonna be smth what it is actually intended to be. It would be much more exciting to keep it as a living structure for artists like temporary residency programs rather then smth useless and dead to poke your finger at during a guided tour. Lucky people are the ones who still inhabit these iconic houses on a daily basis.
