This paper Is to reconsider his architectural significance by understanding the role and moaning of the columns shown in the works of Mies. The reason of such an approach is to reflect the tendency to overlook the various significances of Mies's works as we interpret his architecture simply as a simplified work by abstraction. The process of simplification often neglects open interpretation so that it offers partial and unified cognition frame and causes remaking of closed meanings. It removes some possibilities of new interpretation for Mies's works. The study suggests that his columns are a medium to show the solid body transferring architectural significance in contrast to the immaterialization of body as transparency of modem architecture. It can be said that all the human cognition is usually made within the material limit of visibility and tangibility.
