Listen to two students discuss about Albert Kahn.
did not you write a paper about Albert Kahn last semester? Yes, for my history of architecture class. Oh, I am taking it now and I have to do some research on industrial architecture. I need to read up on Kahn's factories. So I would like to see what you wrote about them. I do not think my paper will help; I focus on his classical design like Clements library and office buildings, but you are interested in the modern building he is famous for. Yes he is best known for his factory, especially the auto plants in Detroit. He made a breakthrough in industrial design. You know before his time, factories were so cmp3ped and inefficient but his factory provide enough light and air and open space. So the cars could be assembled in one huge plant. I remember reading that previously, factories had wooden fmp3e and the heavy machinery made the buildings vibrate and there were firehazards too.
