Brinkman, Johannes Andreas

    0.03 sec.

Brinkman, Johannes Andreas

(born March 22, 1902, Rotterdam, Neth.—died May 6, 1949, Rotterdam) Dutch architect. After graduating from the Delft Technical University, he helped design the van Nelle tobacco factory (1928–30) in Rotterdam, one of the most architecturally important industrial buildings of the 1920s. An outstanding example of Modernist architecture, its unbroken expanses of glass convey a strong feeling of lightness and transparency.
