Founded and nurtured over 60 years, the firm brings the optimism and adventurousness of its home region to sites the world over. This survey of 11 recent projects - built and in development - demonstrates the harmony of proportion and easy flow of space that marks the Kanner approach. The firm's buildings are light - they seem to float and they find the sun, exploiting natural light. Third-generation architect Stephen Kanner solves problems with a timeless appeal more mindful of content than style. Extensively researched and thoroughly fashioned, these designs address each project uniquely. |
