PB - Lars Müller Publishers KW - Architecture KW - Crafts KW - Design KW - Individual architects KW - Louis Kahn N1 - An intimate guided journey into Louis Kahn´s craft and imagination, this book weaves its texts around the drawings of Kahn and his associates to accompany this master architect on his creative search. "The importance of a drawing is immense, because it's the architect's language," said the architect Louis Kahn to his masterclass in 1967. While most studies of Kahn focus on his built works or theory and use drawings mainly to illustrate these, this publication chooses to focus on Kahn's drawings as primary sources of insight into his architectural intelligence and imagination. Lavishly illustrated with over 900 high-quality reproductions of work by Kahn and his associates, incisively presented by a group of acclaimed architectural experts, The Importance of a Drawing is a deep immersion into Kahn's work and his design process ER -
