MIES VAN DER ROHE (PRINSIP-PRINSIP PERANCANGAN ARSITEKTUR PADA KARYA-KARYANYA)

Mies Van Der Rohe is one of the modern architect. For him, beauty is created within simplicity. His esthetical perspective is often associated with the functionalist esthetics which developed in the 20th century. Mies created a 20th century architectural style which influenced the development of modern architecture, which is the concept that explained with extreme simplicity and clarity. For the basic theory to be used as parameter for analyzing, Mies� ideas of Rationality and Functionalist, Space and Function, Form and Geometry, Technology of Structure and Materials will be used as the basic theme, and further will be breakdowned into concepts, variables, and eventually Mies� theory about form, space, circulation, and structural-contruction. The analyse will be done with the former theories as parameters with the form analysis method of 6 chosen buildings designed by Mies. Each building will be analysed to make a resume of each building, and then all six resumes will be compiled and will be further analysed with each parameter. The general summary of each parameter will deduce a final conclusion which is the basic of the architectural design principles by Mies Van Der Rohe. Those principles are: in designing, Mies always keeps the condition of the site, flexible mass structure, simple mass shape, the shape addition and reduction, shape repetition, material segmentation, transparancy, free view, efficient space structure, simple form of the room, flexible rules of hierarchy, space as a program, entrance accesibility, clear room shift, flexible circulation pattern, grid and linear circulation pattern, using practical and light materials, structure and material entirely visible, construction system finished specifically and directly, and lastly, innovation in structure-construction-material
