{"product_id":"louis-kahn-1","title":"Louis Kahn","description":"Like few others, Louis Kahn cultivated the craft of drawing as a means to architecture. His personal design drawings - seen either as a method of discovery or for themselves - are unique in the twentieth century. Over two hundred - mostly unpublished - drawings by Kahn and his associates are woven together with a lively and informed commentary into an intimate biography of an architectural idea. Unfolding around the iconic project for the Dominican Motherhouse (1965 - 69) the drawings form a narrative which not only reveals the richness and hidden dimensions of this unbuilt masterpiece, but provides compelling insights into Louis Kahn''s mature culture of designing. Kahn - long considered an architects'' architectA\" - emerges as a vivid and instructive guide, provoking reflection on questions which continue to remain relevant: on how works are conceived, on how they might be perceived, on how they become part of human experience. Fascinating not only in their beauty, the drawings open a new and stimulating perspective on one of the past century''s great architects.","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57316211786110,"sku":"NW9783037782217","price":53.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1379\/1261\/files\/9783037782217.jpg?v=1778637256","url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/en-eu\/products\/louis-kahn-1","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
