루이스 칸의 조형개념과 붙박이 가구의 디자인연구

초록

American architect Louis I. Kahn is an architect who paid attention to the funda- mental power and possibilities of space. Compared to the representative architectural works he designed, there are relatively few studies on small-scale housing works. Moreover, there is no research on built-in furniture included in the housing design. Kahn designed all the built-in fur- niture himself, and he had interest and passion for furniture, such as coming to the office alone and designing furniture on weekends. This study started with a small clue showing Kahn's pas- sion for furniture. There were few prior studies, so data on his built-in furniture were collected from photos in the collection of works dealing with Kahn's housing design. Of the housing works he designed, nine were actually built, of which a total of five houses had built-in furni- ture enough to be analyzed, and they were studied to find their formative characteristics. In conclusion, the characteristics of built-in households in the five housing works designed by Louis Kahn can be summarized as follows. First, the form of built-in furniture is simple and humble, but the formative role is very important. Second, in early housing work, it is a form attached to the wall, but in later works, it often takes an independent form. Third, built-in households showed new possibilities for built-in furniture by combining them with window systems. Fourth, the formability of the built-in furniture is located on the extension of the for- mative vocabulary of architecture. Fifth, by designing built-in furniture only with wood, it was intended to maintain connection with tradition and to form a warm place for the house.
