Tasso Katselas (born 1927) is an architect in the United States known for his modernist concrete buildings especially in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. His work includes Pittsburgh International Airport, public housing, and mansions.[1] His firm was known as Tasso Katselas Associates and became TKA when he semi-retired in 2005 while continuing to consult for the firm.
Katselas' parents immigrated to the United States from Greece. His work includes public housing and civic structures.[2]
He grew up in East Pittsburgh and studied architecture at the Carnegie Institute of Technology (now Carnegie Mellon). He taught at Kansas State College and designed a chapel for the Fallingwater property after Frank Lloyd Wright recommended him to Liliane Kaufmann for the design of a chapel but she died and the project was never built. He opened his own architectural firm in Pittsburgh in 1955.[2]
He designed a house for his family that was built in 1964.[3][4]
