Peter
and Pamela Mullin Sculpture Studio
Occidental College
Completion 1996
Eagle Rock (Los Angeles)
4,000 square feet
The new 4,000 square-foot Mullin art and sculpture teaching studio,
which presents a flexible layout with a high-bay structure housing
welding and "clean" studios, a faculty office studio, 600
square-foot teaching gallery, outdoor work space and loading dock,
replaced an off-campus facility.
The architecture responds to the geometry of two intersecting streets
with a rotation of wall and roof planes. The statement is industrial,
expressing an aesthetic integrity in functional spaces with galvanized
metal, concrete block and wood. Designed in collaboration with the
Santa Monica-based architecture firm, Hodgetts + Fung, the studio
speaks boldly to Occidental College's long-term commitment to the
arts. |
