Kimbell Art Museum
A 1972 museum in Fort Worth whose cycloid vaults and daylight slots softly illuminate the galleries.
Repeated concrete vaults provide both structure and spatial rhythm, while ceiling slots diffuse daylight.
Servant spaces and galleries are clearly distinguished, yet circulation remains calm and continuous.
It is regarded as a late Kahn masterpiece uniting light, structure, and exhibition.
Architect Louis Kahn
