Louis I. Kahn

Louis I. Kahn (1901–1974) was one of the greatest influences on world architecture during the second half of the twentieth century. This monograph focuses on Kahn’s major designs — from the Yale Art Gallery in New Haven, Connecticut, the Salk Institute, La Jolla, California, the Kimbell Art Museum in Fort Worth, Texas, Phillips Exeter Library, Exeter, New Hampshire to the National Capital of Bangladesh and the Indian Institute of Management in Ahmedabad — as well as a number of unfinished projects, in order to understand his work and philosophy.
