Charles\u00a0Garnier\u2019s\u00a0motto to describe his design for the Paris Opera (aka\u00a0Palais\u00a0Garnier) was\u00a0\u201cBramo\u00a0assai,\u00a0poro\u00a0spero\u201d (Desire for much, hope for little).\u00a0 Legend has it that he also described ornamentation on a building as akin to a lady\u2019s rouge and lipstick (Trachtenberg\u00a0and Hyman,\u00a0Architecture from Prehistory to\u00a0Postmodernity, Second Edition, p. 430).\u00a0 The Second Empire\u00a0Beaux-Arts style he employed on the Opera is highly ornamental, inside and out.\u00a0
Ludwig Mies van\u00a0der\u00a0Rohe\u2019s\u00a0motto, on the other hand, was famously\u00a0\u201cLess is more,\u201d\u00a0as evidenced in his high Modern Barcelona Pavilion.\u00a0 He is also the architect responsible for later glass-curtain wall skyscrapers, such as his Seagram Building in NYC, 1954-58, page 231 in our textbook, fig. 14.23. <\/p>\n
