The purpose of this study is to analyze the meaning of ‘dis-joint’ in the works of Louis I. Kahn. Kahn tried to realize his main architectural thoughts of ‘what it wants to be’ and ‘how it was done’ through his whole life. The concept of ‘dis-joint’ had been developed to visualize his architectural thoughts. Kahn used 'dis-joint' to show and emphasize the structural system for the raison d'etre of building. Kahn’s ‘dis-joint’ can be categorized as ‘spacing’, ‘butt’, ‘slit’ and ‘protrusion’. Kahn used this kind of unusual way of joint beyond simple exposure to stress the existence of element, part and building itself. Through variable combination usage of ‘dis-joint’, Kahn can realize his architectural thoughts into building in a concrete way. The efficiency and function of joint is not the main issue in his works. ‘Dis-joint’ was the concrete tool to show the tectonic of architecture and construction process to enhance its presence. Therefore ‘dis-joint’ of Kahn’s architecture is not a joint only to combine building parts but a concrete mean to realize his thoughts in a corporeal way. These facts insinuate that Kahn’s architectural philosophy is based on the thoughts of tectonic and its realization. |
