Hardcover. Condition: New. The potential of electric light as a new building ?materialâ was recognized in the 1920s and became a useful design tool by the mid-century. Skillful lighting allowed for theatricality, narrative, and a new emphasis on structure and space. The Structure of Light tells the story of the career of Richard Kelly, the fieldâs most influential figure.Six historians, architects, and practitioners explore Kellyâs unparalleled influence on modern architecture and his lighting designs for some of the 20th centuryâs most iconic buildings: Philip Johnsonâs Glass House; Louis Kahnâs Kimbell Art Museum; Eero Saarinenâs GM Technical Center; and Mies van der Roheâs Seagram Building, among many others.

The survival of Kellyâs rich correspondence and extensive diaries allows an in-depth look at the triumphs and uncertainties of a young profession in the making.The first book to focus on the contributions of a master in the field of architectural lighting, this fascinating volume celebrates the practiceâs significance in modern design.…
