In the wolrd of architecture, it would be very strange if someone put a lot of flower full up on the marble wall or some architect wear a barbie dress with colorful pattern. Most of the the architect try to make everything clear and abstract with reasonable that is why we are so different with the pure artist. We all learn in the process of architecture with the quote of "Less is more"
I am one of the student whose always heard this quote and actually, it's the sentence that I often heard in my project'critics and I was wondering how this quote happen and why everyone love to use it?
In my history class today, we've learn about destijl in neoplasticism with his grid and color. Beside, we haved learn about Mies Van Der Rohe whose created
"Less is more".
His work is clearly describe "less is more" start from his furniture, "Barcelona chair". It is the chair that looks quite un comfortable. It's look simple and all the curve and line shows up very clear. In my point of view, it would be a very first simple furniture design in that time, it's like he try to make everything really into mass production. The chair with only fuction no decorative use only 2 materials.
Mies Van Der Rohe created many amazing and successful architecure not only the bauhaus but it's a lot. For example, The house in america with only 3 panels cover by glass. Another thing that is really inpired me from Mies would be his presentation. He made a collage to describe his idea. And it's look very interesting and clearly describe his thought. Actually, i've never seen someone did it before, it's very graphical. I think he is not just less is more but in his "Less", he has already thought a thousand times about his work in every unit of decoration. Most people call him "God of details" and it's really show in his work. His collage can show all the main structure and detail of the house. One of the clearly example is the pattern of the marble wall in Barcelona pavilian. Each marble with a very nice cut. It's like he try to cut it and when he put it together it become like a butterfly wing. And this wall become an attractive one in this pavillian.
In conclusion, I am very glas that I knew the one whoe created this quote and he is inspired me a lot just only I listen to his story from power point. I think his idea and style are very clear and some day I will try to be attractive and amart like him, he created my goal now :)
