Thornton Abell: CSU Art Building (Fullerton, Calif.)

The Art Building complex at California State University, Fullerton is actually a grouping of four buildings connected by courtyards, loggias, and water features. The classrooms in the Art building were designed to be wide and long, to permit many artists to work in the same room. Large windows along the exterior walls provided additional natural light.
