| 説明 | Built in 1952-1956, this Modern International-style building was designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe to house the architecture school of the Illinois Institute of Technology. The building features a glass and steel exterior facade with exposed exterior portal frames and roof beams, a raised basement, a concrete north terrace flanked by sunken stairways that provide direct access to the building’s basement, and a travertine south terrace. Inside, the first floor is a completely open clear-span interior with a cloud ceiling, oak wood partitions, a travertine floor, two staircases flanking the central core, two utility chases, and glass-walled meeting rooms and offices, while the lower level is divided into studios, classrooms, and a library through the use of glass and concrete block partitions. The building was designated a Chicago Landmark in 1997, as well as being listed on the National Register of Historic Places and designated a National Historic Landmark in 2001. The building is also a contributing structure in the Illinois Institute of Technology Academic Campus Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2005. Today, the building houses most of the College of Architecture, which has grown in size, today also occupying space in the adjacent Tech North and Materials and Metals Building. |
