Perhaps his most famous principle, “Less is more,” summarizes Mies’ approach to design: stripping away the unnecessary to reveal the essential. His buildings are characterized by clean lines, open floor plans, and an absence of ornamentation. This philosophy encourages architects to prioritize spatial clarity and material integrity, resulting in modern and enduring structures.

This celebration hosted moments that reinforce the idea that architecture and design are part of all the conversations, experiences, and common efforts that contribute to improving life experiences for all. In addition, the views on the past, present, and future of the platform were shared to have a vision of how Mexican architecture is perceived not only in Mexico but in different countries around the world, thus offering a broader perspective on the practice of architecture and envisioning a collective vision of common goals.
