Books by Franz Schulze

Giving voice to dozens of architects who knew and worked with (and sometimes against) Mies van der Rohe, this comprehensive biography tells the compelling story of how Mies and his students and followers created some of the most significant buildings of the twentieth century.

Covering more than a decade of extraordinary architecture, this work also takes a fresh look at the current status of older buildings in the city. A glossary of architectural terms, an extensive index, and more than 60 new photographs are included in this new edition.

Drawing on Philip Johnsons correspondence, personal photographs, and speeches, and on interviews with his friends and contemporaries, this biography presents information and discussion of the architect's family, travels and friends, as well as his many buildings and spaces.
