Abstract

The relationship with the Roman architecture matured by Luis Kahn during his stay in the Italian capital in 1950 was, as for his own admission, decisive in the transformation of the way of seeing architecture and in the way of elaborating a thought on it starting from the project. There is a pre-Roman Kahn and a Kahn that we can define as the last of the Roman architects. A late-ancient Kahn that has long talked with the places of great Roman architecture, from the Palatine Hill to Villa Adriana, from the Pantheon to the Fori Imperiali, walking through the stereometric obsessions of the Piranesi's objects in the Campo Marzio.
