One of my former employees worked for Kahn. He remembers when 2 wives showed up at his office at the same time. The secretary had to find ways to keep them apart. Luckily his office was on several floors. I have a small photo of Kahn at his last building while it was under construction. One f my friends had Kahn as a professor and he saw Lou at an airport reading an architecture magazine. he asked Lou what he was doing. Lou replied, “Looking for ideas”.

@carolynsielski Месяц назад

I loved your video and I wanted to see it especially after I completed reading Harriet Patterson's book, 'Our days are like full years". I'm so sorry that she never had a true home and total life with him and her son, Nathanial.

@joshuadicken5219 Год назад

First off, I am very thankful for your documentary. Not enough people are talking about Khan. Second, I just wanted to say that I don’t think Louis Khan was just “finding his style” but rather he was looking to the divine and looking at objective truth in geometries and architecture theory and that made his projects sublime and beautiful. Needless to say, I appreciate your video and am grateful. Thank you!

@blessedarch Год назад

Thats an interesting point. Yeah I may have used the wrong words there, cause in his head, it wasn't really his style, but he was trying to as you said find the truth in his geometries and its only after he did it continuously did we categorize that pursuit as his 'style'

@SomeOne-em9yw Год назад

Love the way how everything was narrated, thought I had to endure another boring documentary for studies but surprisingly I wasn't. I get to remember informations easily because, the presentation was entertaining. Good job!

Great mini-documentary to serve as an introduction to Louis Kahn! Also, fantastic effort in making the video!! I hope the community appreciates how long it takes to produces such a great piece of content! One building that should have been mentioned is the Philip Exeter Library as it is an example of the strong massing and gometrical compositions that influences most of the later buildings that came about

@change9929 Год назад

Good video.What surprises me is how he suddenly went on to produce great buildings.Where did he learn this.What was his inspiration.

@Bronzeagleye Год назад

I believe the Pennsylvania Station you show was long gone when Louis I Kahn died. He was to give a lecture in a class on urban architecture I was taking, and instead Vincent Scully gave one of the most electrifying lectures I have ever heard as a memorial to Kahn.

@harperwelch5147 Год назад

Great doc. Enjoyed it and very informative. Something could have been said about his careful balance of brutalist and expressive modern architecture. He was not a strict “modernist”. He enjoyed playful forms and wasn’t afraid to reference the past.

@ellearnot1200 Год назад

Thank you very much for this informative and sensitive documentary. I recently visited the Salk Institute in La Jolla California. Without knowing that much about Louis Kahn's intention, I immediately had an emotional reaction and a sense of the sublime, hope and greatness---which is what Jonas Salk wanted and what Louis Kahn actualized. I'm a bit confused about why you call it Salk lake in your narrative. There is a majestic view of the Pacific Ocean. There is no known destination as the Salk lake institute. (There is Salt Lake City in Utah) There are also several typos in your presentation. It would be good to fix them, but please be assured that they did not detract from the content and sincerity of the presentation. Thank you again and I look forward to more BlessedArch and will recommend your channel to my art students.

My Architect is a must watch! It’s captivating and the photography is beautiful👍🏻 Subscribed btw. I will binge on your content on my day off👍🏻❤️

@josenazario3453 2 года назад

Thanks for the informative video. I’ve seen his work for years and didn’t know it was him. One thing though- Salk Lake is not a thing. There’s the Salk Institute in Southern California and there is Salt Lake City but there is no Salk Lake. I think you’re mixing things up when you smash that together.

@blessedarch 2 года назад

Ohh yeah You are right. I think I mixed them up while scripting. Sorry for that, and thanks for pointing it out.

So sad the part when he died, why there was no name on the ID card? Anyway, awesome video! :D

There was a name on his passport but his address was crossed off. And no one actually knows why.

Louis Kahn was one of my favourite Architechs.Parliment Building of East Pakistan(Bangladesh) is his greatest works. Architect Pervaiz Salahuddin,Pakistan

@christophermoody1448 Год назад

His buildings are remarkable. However, looking at Kahn, no one would have thought that he was a rolling stone. This is not to disparage him in any way. However, this is not to glorify his personal life either. This video nicely explains that Louis Kahn was a master at what he did. It also shows that he was human, too.

@blessedarch Год назад

In all my documentaries I try and not only cover the designs made by these great architects, but also dive deeper into the kind of life they lived and their motivation behind the work that they do. I am glad you liked this documentary

The son’s documentary says it all about Khan. Great architects seem to have lousy marriage. Zaha didn’t even get to have a man to love for her love of her own naked curves.
