The Barcelona Pavilion is a masterpiece of modern architecture, designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe for the 1929 International Exposition in Barcelona. This elegant and minimalist building, with its iconic use of marble, onyx, and travertine, served as the German Pavilion for the exhibition’s opening.
The Barcelona Pavilion has had a profound influence on the development of modern architecture and design. It has inspired countless architects and designers around the world, and its legacy continues to be celebrated today.
One of the most striking features of the Barcelona Pavilion is its furniture, which was specifically designed for the building. The iconic Barcelona chair, with its sleek curves and luxurious materials, is a testament to Mies van der Rohe’s innovative design.
