I.M. Pei Talks About Louis Kahn

[iampeeay01]

I love Mr. IM Pei... so as i love his works. He's such a wonder man.. like you wouldn't hesitate to go near him and ask him about architecture and talk about it the whole day.. basing on what i have seen in this video he is so approachable he is like a father talking to his son about his experiences in life.. :)

I was wondering myself, I had to listen to it 10 times, but i'm pretty sure he says "teak wood" Googled the building materials for the salk institute, its teak :)

Thank you to all of these great architects. I know that I was put on this Earth to create significant works that move people for the greater good b/c of inspirational people and projects like this.  Architecture truly is a social service and a self-discovery through each project through every client. Although, I am still only a student, the amount of emotional and spiritual affect that great design has on me truly brings out a better person from within. This is the reason I pursue my dream.

Nathaniel Kahn pays a moving tribute to his father, a man who was perhaps not easy to know but easy to love. Louis Kahn was moved by the same spirit that guideded the builders of Chaco Canyon, Stonehenge and ancient gathering places that survive and inspire. Thank you for sharing this amazing story of family, career path and friendship.  You have truly captured the essence of your father.

All the great architects got awesome specs. :)

[SirCosmoBonsor]

What a nice gentleman. The Phillip Johnson specs are an affectation though :)

höchstinteressant und herzzerbrechend

[MrEternalechoes]

You gotta love the way Mr Pei wears his wristwatch. Pure class.

[paulvo9]

@MrEternalechoes considering how profound Pei's remarks are-I find you comment ridiculously trivial and stupid.
