BARCELONA. COUCH Created by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe for his 1929 German Pavilion at the International
Exhibition in Barcelona, the collection's pure composition came to epitomize Modern architecture. From the handbuffed
frame to the individual leather squares carefully welted together, each Barcelona piece is a tribute to traditional
craftsmanship and meticulous attention to details. The Barcelona Couch was designed in 1930 to complete the
Barcelona Collection. The collection includes the lounge chair, stool and couch and table.
LUDWIG MIES VAN DER ROHE "Architecture is a language; when you are very good you can be a poet," wrote
the acclaimed architect and Bauhaus director. As a leading Modernist architect and furniture designer, Mies elevated
industrial-age materials to an art form. His steel-framed buildings with large-scale glazing like the Seagram Building
in New York (1958) and the Nationalgalerie in Berlin (1968) are landmarks of modern architecture.
