Salk Institute designed by Louis Kahn.
He designed in a direction of making a structure that would be easily adapted to changing needs, something with low maintenance and something ultimately timeless. A structure thats becomes a meeting point of environment and function and aesthetics.Enormous looking monolithic structure has the backdrop of the simplicity provided by the clear sky and ocean.

I personally love the raw unfinished look and makes me think not always the highly polished facades are appealing. Even with such heavy structures there is still some sort of airiness felt in the spaces around, which could be quite a contrast.
