ArchitectureWeek Description Mies van der Rohe's famous Barcelona Pavilion was built for the 1929 World's Fair then demolished in 1930 and reconstructed as a permanent installation in 1986. Known for its simple form — perpendicular planes and "flowing space" — and extravagant materials, such as marble and travertine, the pavilion has become an icon of modern architecture. This book is a thorough study of the building, its history, and the artwork it was built for. Some Related Books... FEATURED Farnsworth House (Architecture in Detail) - Maritz Vandenberg
