Before Mies van der Rohe designed the Farnsworth House, he was developing a design style of using steel and glass. He was developing a concept of openness using the materials of glass and steel.
One of his most famous buildings, the Farnsworth House, was designed with this concept, and this is the main influence on my architecture. I am changing the exterior of a building to a shell made of large panels of glass and some small steel structure.
