Rafael Viñoly is an American architect born in 1944 whose practice spans institutional, commercial, and cultural buildings characterized by bold geometric forms and innovative structural systems. Working across scales from small-scale civic projects to large institutional commissions, Viñoly has developed an approach that emphasizes clarity of form and material honesty. His work engages postwar modernist principles while incorporating contemporary concerns about program and site response.
