Charlie Rose’s interviews were always so engaging because he really absorbed himself into the works of those he interviewed. Nothing flippant or “sound-bitie” about his interviewing style. Great conversation here about an extraordinary architect whose work is still accessible to us. Thank you so very much, “Manufacturing Intellect”, for finding and uploading this wonderful interview.

Thanks for posting this interesting discussion.

at 14.30 it is interesting that Robert Venturi regretted on his remark "Less is a bore"!

I spent my life inadvertently surrounded by Bauhaus, not realizing it, yet in total appreciation of it. In fact I've recently designed a building that as I watch this interview, Mies would love. I wish so badly I could share it with him to see his reaction. My beams are also external. Glass and openness. At first I wondered about what I had created, since it has elements of the Farnsworth housse. But the more I hear about Mies' works the better I feel about what I've accomplished.

Sounds inefficient. Where is this building located?

Wow! I didn't know that Phyllis Lambert is of the Seagram Company and the one who chose Mies as the architect of the building. Thank you for sharing!

I would be interested in knowing, from the moment you started having an interest for architecture, for how long this information ‘’avoided’’ you? And BTW she didn’t have anything to do with Seagram, except that her father owned it. So, it is he who hired Mies on her (and Phillip Johnson’s) recommendation. Prior to that, another architect had been hired, and the plan was to build a typical (at the time) New York structure which footprint is identical to the lot’s boundaries, with step backs. That is until Ms Lambert, then an art student in Paris, saw a rendering in the papers and called her father.

Interesting video!

I was just in New York City last Thursday. I usually walk up Park Avenue past the Seagram Building when I am in the City. I used to live in New York and for several years I worked just a block away from Seagram so I spent many hours sitting on the Seagram plaza. When I walked past the other day, the building was beaming with brown reflected daylight, like a fine glass of whiskey with ice in it. The building appeared to have just been polished, as it is every year or two, and the windows were spotless. No other building in the world looks like it. Seagram is #1 in my opinion.

love it!!

The Seagrams is just one of many building Mies designed in a similar fashion. Hardly his cat's meow. Love how New Yorkers see themselves at the center of this universe, desperately connecting themselves into the legacy.

He was far ahead of his time

Why is the music so creepy

Well, I would call it retro-futuristic art music, and somehow it feels appropriate to those images

it was just too loud. re:minimalism music

This has to be the most pretentious looking panel of interviewees I've ever seen. That look at 3:25 is priceless 😂

That's Paul Goldberger, not Philip Johnson, though it's clear there were lots of architects on your mind.

Yes.

I miss Rose interviews.

Hi. I would like to announce the upcoming release (November 2018) of my monograph about the November Revolution Monument in Berlin-Lichtenberg. The disappeared monument represents the fascinating history of the encounter between avant-garde art and progressive politics, contributing decisively to the development of Mies radically innovative architectural language. More information about the project here: www.kickstarter.com/projects/1375846881/mies-november-revolution-monument. I would be very glad to receive your support.

Sorry, but Rose turns my stomach. I’ll look for a van de Rohe interview elsewhere.

It looks like that from the outside but from the inside those apartments actually can be very nice! And I have serious doubts that people take their lives because of that. Rather because the person's live was fucked up for some reason. Could also happen every house of every design.

@@BarthiArgento one side is torturing hot in summer, the other is dark and never as light plus you freeze beside the large windows. Some people don't even want to go inside, they freakout at the door. Some really like it. I enjoyed but with time became a very dry atmosphere even if it's very beautiful. 1 person jumped out the window during my 4 years there.

Charlie Rose was such an overrated interviewer. He constantly interrupts to show his knowledge

I found I didn’t really notice the music. And I don’t really feel pushed to replay the tape because I know that my taste in music is such that I enjoy all music once I have really really listened closely to each piece. It seems to me that my joy comes from allowing the pieces in any medium, my long focused attention. And then the beauty emerges forever. Once thus must deliberately Pay Attention in order that any discord is suppressed by the process of discovery. I have encouraged depressed patients to go very close to eg a tree trunk and look long. Afterwards one’s mood is often lifted.
