Louis Kahn's Exeter Library, also known as the Phillips Exeter Academy Library, stands as a monumental testament to modern architectural design and the profound utility of space for intellectual engagement. This masterpiece of late 20th-century architecture, located in the heart of Phillips Exeter Academy in New Hampshire, not in San Diego, CA as mentioned, invites students and visitors alike into a luminous atrium surrounded by layers of open book stacks and intimate study areas.
Don't miss the chance to explore the fourth floor for an enchanting view of the entire library interior.
