this development is the largest concentration of buildings designed by Mies van der Rohe in the world
Located in Bloomfield Hills, Cranbrook is recognized as the cradle of American modernism, having impacted architecture, furniture, design, and art. It's impossible to overstate the school's importance. Its beautiful campus and early buildings were designed by Eliel Saarinen, one of the seminal architects of the period. The entire campus, all fourteen buildings, is a National Historic Landmark.
The remarkable corporate campus, designed by Eero Saarinen, son of the Cranbrook designer Eliel Saarinen, demonstrates total design cohesion. Nearly everything, from doors to floor plans to the central lake, conforms to the same modular ratio. Saarinen also commissioned several stunning works of art and design, like the spiral staircase in the Research & Design Administration Building, where each of its massive slabs seems to defy the laws of physics.
Located on Wayne State University's campus in Detroit, the McGregor Memorial Conference Center is a jewel designed by Minoru Yamasaki, one of America's most important modern architects. Constructed in 1958, it was the first of four buildings he would design for the school. The sculpture garden and pool are almost as famous as the building itself. Which really says something considering its main hallway, with pyramidal skylights, was a real innovation for its time. Together with the restored water pools it, too, is a National Historic Landmark.
The Michigan Consolidated Gas Building, aka One Woodward Avenue, was also designed by Minoru Yamasaki and built in 1962. The steel-framed, 32 floor, skyscraper holds a prominent spot on the Detroit skyline. Its facade is a series of repeating bays and piers, and the windows on the uppermost floors are a mere 12 inches. Also notable is its gleaming lobby, surrounded by 82 glass panes, and columns, stairs and floors made of finished white marble.
While it may be the the least known building on the list, the W. Hawkins Ferry House in Grosse Pointe Shores is a testament to the beauty of William Kessler's designs. The house was built in 1964 for William Hawkins Ferry, who attended Cranbrook and where he possibly developed his appreciation for modern art and architecture. Over the years, Ferry amassed an enormous art collection and asked Kessler to design a gallery-like, open floor plan for his house. The expansive windows also make use of the great views provided by Lake St Claire.
Minuro Yamasaki building built for the American Concrete Institute in the mid-century. It's classic work of his. Located at 22400 W. 7 Mile Rd., near Lahser.
