The Louis I. Kahn Trophy (commonly referred to as LIK Trophy) was established in 1981 by the Vastu-Shilpa Foundation,
Sri B V Doshi and family along with National Association of Students of Architecture, India.
The Louis I. Kahn Trophy is a prestigious competition where participants carefully document architectural structures
based on specific guidelines. This competition holds a profound purpose: to elevate the standards of architectural
education while navigating the delicate balance of preserving our historic environments. The core mission is to
perpetuate a legacy of knowledge, skills, and training essential for the effective protection and conservation of our
invaluable heritage.
