An intimate record of Kahn's musings on design, coupled with preparatory drawings of his monumental last project

Published in honor of the 50th anniversary of his death in March 1974, this two-volume set contains a facsimile of the notebook in which Louis Kahn drew and wrote during his last year of life, alongside a second volume of scholarly commentary and transliterations of his musings. Anchored by a magnificent set of preparatory drawings for his monument to Franklin Roosevelt in New York City, the notebook provides an intimate glimpse into private sketches of Kahn's final projects and his poetic reflections on thematic preoccupations, such as Silence to Light, Form and Design, Society of Rooms and Desire to Express. Each volume is in a vellum sleeve and both are housed together in a transparent slipcase.
