There have been several extensive studies of the many iconic works of renowned architect Louis I. Kahn (1901–1974), but few focus on the full expression of his architectural philosophy. Relying on direct quotations from Kahn himself, this book features the architect’s most essential ideas as they are articulated in his impressive final work: the Yale Center for British Art in New Haven, Connecticut. Author Jules David Prown precisely demonstrates, with photographs and illustrations, how Kahn’s aesthetic concepts are manifested in the structure and attributes of the Center.
