From his early years in Germany to the end of his life in the United States, collective housing has been very present in the work of Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. The research carried out by Fernando Casqueiro, a professor at ETSAM (Madrid), compiles, for the first time, the entire collection of projects on collective housing.
Each work has been analyzed, redrawed and compared on the same parameters.
The result is a journey through the creation and consolidation of a typology, with the high point at 860-880 Lake Shore Drive and the Lafayette Pavilion.
The collection is made up of 36 projects, built or just projected, that cover the life of Mies, his relationship with his clients and the influence of his collaborators, from his beginnings in Berlin to his death in Chicago.
MIES VAN DER ROHE. THE COLLECTIVE HOUSING COLLECTION is a reference volume for learning about the innovations that Mies van der Rohe brought to the composition of the modern plan and his relationship with the façade.
