 | Between Silence & Light by John Lobell
In the development of contemporary architecture, few have had greater influence than Louis I Kahn, whose many buildings included the Salk Institute, the Yale Study Center, and the Exeter Library. For Kahn, the study of architecture was the study of human beings, their highest aspirations and most profound truths. John Lobell, who studied under Kahn while in architecture school, sensitively edits Kahn's own words and provides commentary on Kahn's ideas and his major buildings. In his work as an architect, Kahn searched for beginnings: the origin of joy and wonder, of intelligence, and intuition. He sought the basic principles of being, which he called Silence and Light. Kahn spoke of these qualities with tremendous power and grace. Between Silence and Light ? one of the few books on Kahn written for a general audience ? introduces us to Louis Kahn the architect and visionary. AUTHOR: John Lobell
