Born in Aachen as Ludwig Mies (1886–1969), he later took his mother’s name, van der Rohe, in an altered form. Young Mies van der Rohe trained and worked with architect Bruno Paul, who also designed furniture for Thonet. At the age of 22, he joined the studio of Peter Behrens in Neubabelsberg, where he met Walter Gropius and Le Corbusier. After initially beginning as a mansion architect, he ultimately became famous through his spectacular plans for a steel and glass skyscraper with curtain façade on Bahnhof Friedrichstrasse in Berlin. Mies, as friends, colleagues and students called him, developed into the lead protagonist for innovative steel and glass architecture.
