It's Mies Van der Rohe's 126th birthday!

So, today, the architecture world is 'celebrating'  Ludwig Mies Van der Rohe's 126th birthday! He is one of the legendary architects that we were introduced to at the early stage of our architectural studies. His design has been well received and has been referred to by newbies like me :)

Photo of Crown Hall of Illinois Institute of Technology (as shown below) is one of those 'architecture wonder' that we have to 'study' as part of our appreciation to our 'legend'. I think I still have some sketch of it somewhere in my portfolio folder. ;)
