Gordon Bunshaft

Gordon Bunshaft (May 9, 1909August 6, 1990) was a 20th century architect educated at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Bunshaft worked with Edward Durrell Stone, worked three months for industrial designer Raymond Loewy, whom he considered a phony, eventually becoming a partner in the New York office of the young firm Skidmore, Owings, and Merrill.

Bunshaft was a modernist whose early influences included Mies van der Rohe and Le Corbusier. His best-known design is the Lever House, built as a corporate headquarters for the soap company Lever Brothers. His design for the Manufacturers Hanover Trust Branch Bank (1953), the first post-war 'transparent' bank on the east coast, is a modernist gem.

In the 1950s, Bunshaft was hired by the State Department's Office of Foreign Building Operations as a collaborator on the design for several US consulates in Germany.
