BUILDING = HUMAN
WILL TO BE
DESIRE TO BE
WILL TO EXPRESS
• Kahn's architecture is notable for its simple, forms and
compositions.
• Kahn design of buildings, characterized by powerful, massive
forms.
• Through the use of brick and poured-in place concrete masonry,
he developed a contemporary and monumental architecture that
maintained sympathy for the site and did not loose its proportion.
• Louis Kahn's work infused International style with a highly
personal taste, poetry of light and exposing the materials without
altering.
• THE ROOM IS THE BEGINNING OF ARCHITECTURE
• THE PLAN IS A SOCIETY OF ROOMS
• A LONG STREET IS A SUCCESSION OF ROOMS.
• THE CITY IS A PLACE OF ASSEMBLED INSTITUTION.
• THE ROOM & PLAN, THE STREET & CITY = INSTITUTIONS BASED ON HUMAN
AGREEMENT
• ‘I do not like ducts; I do not like pipes. I hate them really thoroughly, but because I
hate them so thoroughly, I feel they have to be given their place. If I just hated them
and took no care, I think they would invade the building and completely destroy it.’-
