Mies van der Rohe,   MR20 Armchair 1927 

Ludwig Mies van der Rohe (March 27, 1886 – August 17, 1969), was a German architect, furniture designer and teacher, active also in the USA. With Frank Lloyd Wright, Walter Gropius and Le Corbusier, he was a leading figure in the development of modern architecture. His reputation rests not only on his buildings and projects but also on his rationally based method of architectural education.
