The Salk Institute isn’t just a building for science—it’s a space where architecture inspires discovery. The central courtyard, with its view of the Pacific Ocean, creates a sense of infinity, reminding scientists of the vast scope of their research. The minimalist design, the water channel, and the play of light on concrete walls set the stage for reflection and contemplation.
Kahn designed a place where science and nature merge: labs with flexible layouts and natural light encourage collaboration, while the tranquility of the courtyard helps focus the mind. This isn’t just an institute—it’s a space where great ideas are born.
