• PROJECT- S.R CROWN HALL
• The building is divided into two levels: the main floor, shaped like a large space and a
semi-buried where they are located the offices, meeting rooms and services.
• The main floor, which occupies 50% of the building, comprising a single glass-enclosed
space devoted to the study of architecture. Mies called it a “universal space” to be totally
flexible in its use. The divisions that has very few moving parts, made with lightweight
panels that allow you to place the space as required.
• The vegetation surrounding the building a calm working environment, helps regulate the
sunlight on the glass facade and makes the view much more pleasant for users inside the
building.
• The facades of glass create an open environment, giving the feeling of working outdoors
in a park, with the view to the skyscrapers of Chicago and vegetation.

• Rohe relied heavily on
glass to dissolve the
boundary between the
buildings interior and
exterior.
• He used simple
rectangular forms,
clean lines and pure
use of colours for the
interior style.
• As the building is
column free, the space is
open and wide, designed
with only one large, open
classroom for the entire
place. The walls are
made of ceiling-to-floor
glass walls, encouraging
the close relationship
between human, building
and nature
