Produktbeschreibung
In the early 2000s, Allan Kehrt, a Fellow of the American Institute of Architects, and a founding partner of the architecture firm KSS Architects, began writing down ideas about architecture. These were short notes, quick studies on a single idea, the literary equivalent of an architect's sketch. In the days before email was common, each week he would put a note on a new topic in his employees' physical inboxes or mention that week's idea at Monday morning meetings. The notes, each formatted in a small square of text, with just a single-word title, quickly became known around the office as his Monday Morning Musings. This book, a collection of those notes, is a view into the philosophy behind an architecture practice. It is a moving meditation on what it means and why it matters to push for design that makes the world a more beautiful, more equitable, and more human place.
