Kahn. Islander

Kahn. Islander is a Tallinn-based interdisciplinary research platform that focuses on the ties between US architect Louis Kahn (1901-1974) and the Baltic states. It evolved out of the first Kahn Days in 2006, a festival held in Kuressaare Bishop’s Castle on Saaremaa Island, Estonia.

The project examines affinities between Kahn’s architectural ideas and medieval architecture and bridges centuries and continents.
