The AIA honored the works of perhaps no other architect more than that of Louis Kahn (1971 Gold Medalist). The Phillips Exeter Academy Library, however, is the only Kahn building that made the public’s list. The client specified the use of Exeter brick, stone and slate. Kahn also incorporated wood, particularly white oak. The library received the AIA’s Twenty-five Year Award in 1997. The interior of this building has also been modeled, hide one half of the building to view. Model created by Adam Hecht.
