V is for Villanueva
Central University of Venezuela
The works of Venezuelan architect Carlos Raúl Villanueva trace the conceptual evolution of the Latin modernity that prevailed in South America during the 1950s & 60s. His work often played "homage to Le Corbusier's definition of architecture as circulation and as a play of forms in light," yet afforded a regional precedent to Latin American architects believing that architecture could be a apparatus for social betterment, cultural and urban rejuvenation.

What about U???
I would say Jorn Utzon.
There are far better views than that of the storage and services buildings in the pictures you propose. Try interior spaces in the faculty of architecture.
