Our friends at Yale University Press have offered to give one of our readers a newly released copy of The Houses of Louis Kahn by William Whitaker and George Marcus.
Deemed by American Art and Architecture author Michael J. Lewis to be “quite simply the most important book on Kahn” published in over two decades, The Houses of Louis Kahn examines the architect’s nine major residential commissions in detail, offering an overview of Kahn’s relationship with his projects’ patrons and his active involvement with the design of interiors and furniture. The 280-page book features all new photography of the homes, alongside period photographs and original drawings, and previously unpublished materials from personal interviews, archives, and Kahn’s own writings.
To participate, all you have to do is answer the following question in the comment section below: “Which Kahn project do you find most inspiring and why?”
You have until Monday, November 18th to submit your answers. The winner will be contacted the following day. Good luck!
Giveaway: The Houses of Louis Kahn originally appeared on ArchDaily, the most visited architecture website on 12 Nov 2013.
