Behrens, Peter (1868–1940)

German architect. A pioneer of the Modern Movement and of the adaptation of architecture to industry. He designed the AEG turbine factory in Berlin (1909), a landmark in industrial architecture, and taught Le Corbusier, Walter Gropius, and Mies van der Rohe.

Behrens was born at Hamburg. After working in Munich, Darmstadt, and Düsseldorf, he moved around 1907 to Berlin and in 1922 to Vienna where he became professor of architecture from 1922 to 27. He designed many important industrial and commercial buildings in Germany.
