Louis Kahn is one of architecture\u2019s most influential figures of the 20th century. The American passed away under sad circumstances in 1974, but his distinctive, monumental style and cultural impact across the globe have ensured Kahn\u2019s perpetual presence in the minds of today\u2019s foremost architects.<\/p>\n

His love of raw materiality and the solidity of Brutalism is evoked by Tadao Ando<\/a>\u2019s poetic concrete forms, while Kahn\u2019s unbuilt City Tower project influenced many advocates of the high-tech movement, including Renzo Piano<\/a>, Richard Rogers<\/a> and Norman Foster<\/a>. Meanwhile, many of Kahn\u2019s former apprentices \u2014 from playful postmodernist Robert Venturi<\/a> to the experimental Moshe Safdie<\/a> \u2014 continue to push the boundaries of architectural design as their mentor did.<\/p>\n

Here, we look back at some of the architect\u2019s greatest highlights from an extraordinary career that continues to inspire the young architects today. In chronological order according to the date of each building\u2019s completion, this is the lasting legacy of Louis Khan:<\/p>\n
