LOUIS KAHN
Monumental Modernism:
The Louis Kahn Collection
The Louis Kahn Collection Catalog unveils a lesser-known facet of Kahn’s genius—his product design pieces, subtly integrated within his architectural masterpieces. Often hidden between the walls of his monumental structures, these objects reflect the same rigor, material honesty, and sculptural beauty that define his buildings. From bespoke lighting fixtures to meticulously crafted furniture, Kahn’s designs embody his philosophy that every element, no matter how small, contributes to the whole. Featuring rare sketches, prototypes, and archival insights, this catalog reveals how Kahn’s architectural vision extended beyond grand spaces into the finely detailed objects that lived within them. A tribute to his holistic approach to design, the Louis Kahn Collection Catalog invites readers to explore the quiet yet profound artistry woven into his work.
