Salk Institute Model | Louis Kahn Miniature | Modernist Architecture Gift | Concrete Icon | 3D Printed | Architect Gift

An empty courtyard, a line of water, and the Pacific beyond. Kahn's Salk Institute is the most moving plaza in modern architecture — a facade to the sky.

This is the Salk as an architect sees it: the twin laboratory wings, the study towers, the travertine plane and its channel of water — accurate in proportion and modelled from real geometry.

The 120mm x 120mm base includes the plaza to scale — because a building is never just a building. It is where you were standing when it mattered.

WHO THIS IS FOR
