Louis Kahn redefined modern architecture with his timeless designs that marry function, beauty, and meaning. His iconic works—like the Salk Institute, Kimbell Art Museum, and National Assembly Building of Bangladesh—blend ancient principles with modern innovation, creating spaces that inspire awe and introspection.
Kahn’s use of light, material, and form brought a profound sense of monumentality to modernism, making his work a lasting symbol of human creativity and ambition.
