Louis Kahn: The Architect's Philosopher

Louis I. Kahn is one of the most influential American architects after Frank Lloyd Wright. During his relatively short career, he created numerous timeless masterpieces, achieving an astonishingly high standard of design quality. This book not only interprets Kahn's work but also introduces him personally. Its structure is compact and well-organized, making it highly accessible. The book is divided into three parts. The first part introduces Kahn's background, the concepts behind his work at various stages, and the influences behind it. The second part offers an in-depth appreciation of six of Kahn's representative works. The third part presents Kahn's philosophical reflections, whose theories imbue rigid structures and building systems with vitality and modernity.
