Humana Building, Louisville : Michael Graves - surajkala - 07-25-2014

Humana Building, Louisville, Kentucky, located at 500 West Main Street . 1985

Each side of the building has slightly different designs. The form of the upper few floors are designed as a sloping pyramid. The building is famous because of the flat pink granite that covered the exterior façade.

The loggia on the building‘s north facade is respectful to the older downtown architecture, and in a way continues the store front line of the original street fabric.
