Cliff May: Lear house (Los Angeles, Calif.)
subject: Cliff May, architect
description: In this birds-eye view of the William Lear house in Los Angeles, the sprawling multi-winged house is seen perched on a hill overlooking the city. With a large circular motor court and pool with patio enclosed on all four sides by the house, it has some of the common features for May's custom houses. But as with some of his later custom homes, the scale of the patio and pool are increasingly grand, the motor court is larger, and the scale of the house has grown dramatically over his early ranch houses of the mid-30s.

Cliff May: Hauser house (Borrego Springs, Calif.)
subject: Cliff May, architect
description: The Hauser house in Borrego Springs is one of Cliff May's earlier custom ranch houses, but it has all of the elements of some of his larger designs. With a U-shaped floor plan, the house has one wing with master bedroom and smaller bedrooms, another wing with service rooms and garage, then the bottom of the U forms the living room and dining room, along with a large patio. With desert heat being an issue, the patio has a canvas 'skyshade' and a covered patio adjacent to the kitchen, which overlooks the pool. Another unique feature is the walled off 'play yard' outside of the children's bedroom-- a separate area from the parents' patio, so that each group can enjoy their separate outdoor space.

description: The house was built in 1940-1941 as a very small house, only 16x20. Frey added on to the house in 1948 and 1953. The first addition consisted of an additional living/sleeping area and an indoor/outdoor wading pool surrounded by corrugated metal walls and planted with many tropical plants. The 1953 addition was for the unique second floor sleeping area-- a circular room with porthole-style windows and a hanging staircase. Frey also added a curved metal and fiberglass wall surrounding the main pool.

California City: Advertising Brochure
subject: Southern California Architecture California Modern Architecture Urban Planning
description: Despite all of the city planning and marketing of California City, the population did not increase at the rates hoped for by the investors. The marketing of California City was aimed at people in the greater Los Angeles area who wanted to escape the smog and congestion of the urban city and live in a completely planned and organized city. With gold, silver, and borax mines, as well as a military base, jobs were available. The advertising brochure shows how narrow the marketing focus was on a specific type of homebuyer.

Some neighborhoods featured wide, park-like lots without fences, others were to be standard suburban lots with equal-sized lots, still others were 'atrium houses' which featured an interior courtyard, as well as townhomes, high rises, and senior living facilities. All would be within easy walking or driving distance of work, school, shopping, and recreational facilities.

Gregory Ain: Park Planned homes (Altadena, Calif.)
subject: Southern California Architecture California Modern Architecture
description: The Park Plannned Homes is a tract of 28 houses in Altadena, designed by Ain with landscape architect Garrett Eckbo. They have elements of an open concept feel, with a modular building design of 12' x 16' modular units that allowed for common finishes, hardware and equipment. The housing tract was built on a slope, so each property was leveled off and is stepped down from the one above. Along with all of the houses having the garage and service area in the front (and a private patio), the retaining walls and landscaping provide privacy for the homeowners.

subject: Southern California Architecture California Modern Architecture
description: Originally planned as a tract of 100 homes on 60 acres, the Mar Vista Tract built 52 homes. Ain partnered with Joseph Johnson, Alfred Day, and landscape architect Garrett Eckbo to design the housing tract. The houses were turned in different directions, so that the side facing the street gave each house a slightly different look. Ain used sliding doors to create a flexible living arrangement-- one sliding door between bedrooms made two small rooms into one large room, and another sliding door between a bedroom and the living room opened up the space. It is the first post-WWII housing district to receive the Los Angeles Historic Preservation Overlay Zone designation.

Gregory Ain: Avenel Homes (Los Angeles, Calif.)
subject: Southern California Architecture California Modern Architecture
description: This group of small homes set side-by-side perpendicular to the street on a long lot, created a community feel, while walls and patios defined individual space. The houses were designed to be low cost urban housing, with the homeowners (a group of recent WWII veterans) pooling their resources to buy the land and build the development. This type of community at the time was viewed with suspicion of being communist in nature. Ain brought features of higher-end modernist homes into the low cost community housing. Though the space is only 908 square feet, Ain incorporated sliding walls between the living room and master bedroom, and between the two smaller bedrooms to give flexibility in living arrangements. The dining room table was incorporated into the kitchen counter to preserve space. The Federal Housing Authority had to approve the plans, and they denied Ain's design for a half bath, and insisted upon a broom closet instead. The complex is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

San Joaquin Villages
subject: University of California, Santa Barbara
description: This site plan shows the pedestrian circulation patterns within this section of San Joaquin. The mixed height of the buildings, break up the massing of the structures which hold faculty apartments, lounges, and study spaces. The plan emphasizes communal spaces by placing them close to the public walkways. The buildings were sited so as not to impede upon the Storke Ranch properties immediately to the north. San Joaquin follows this model by also including the Portola Dining Commons, a market, outdoor volleyball and basketball courts, as well as a range of social and academic services for the 1000 students who live here and for the 1300 students in the adjacent Santa Catalina Residence Hall. By adding more apartment-style living units and amenities, the University hopes to keep students living in campus housing for all four of their undergraduate years. Lorcan O’Herlihy Architects (LOHA) designed two of the housing clusters in the northern section of the site. Two more of the clusters were designed by Kevin Daly Architects (KDA), and Kieran Timberlake was responsible for the Portola Dining Commons. Two 6-story towers and the overall site master plan are by Skidmore Owings and Merrill (SOM).

Francisco Torres / Santa Catalina Residence Hall
subject: University of California, Santa Barbara
description: This is a preliminary planting plan for the area surrounding the private residence hall, Francisco Torres. This residence hall, at the corner of Storke Road and El Colegio, was built and maintained by private owners. Though it was heavily marketed towards incoming freshman, it was not part of the UCSB Housing department until UCSB purchased the complex in 2003 and renamed it Santa Catalina. This planting plan shows that the complex was initially designed with 4 towers, connected by a common area, dining hall, pool, and tennis courts.

South Hall
subject: University of California, Santa Barbara
description: This photograph shows a model of South Hall, with Girvetz Hall in the foreground. Marsh, Smith & Powell designed Girvetz in 1955, shortly before Marshs' death. The firm changed its name to Powell, Morgridge, Richards, & Coughlin in the early 1960's and designed many of the buildings on campus in the "late campus standard" style of architecture: Phelps Hall, Ellison Hall, Buchanan Hall, and South Hall. This style is characterized by long horizontal lines of re-enforced concrete, with tall utility shafts, and sunscreens that overhang the windows to block the excessive sun. The connection between the "campus standard" and "late campus standard" styles can be seen most clearly in the walkways connecting South Hall and Girvetz: South Hall creates courtyards around Girvetz, with seating areas built from the standard cinnamon colored concrete blocks, and a one-story covered walkway extends from the southwest corner of Girvetz to the southwest corner of South.

The placement of San Rafael Hall on the western edge of the campus, adjacent to Isla Vista, shows the expansion of the on-campus housing beyond the original residence hall cluster. The Carrillo Dining Commons was built (also by Charles Luckman Associates, 1967) adjacent to San Rafael. This residence hall was designed to have small clusters of students living in buildings designed to create small communities, each small section with their own study lounge and bathroom facilities. San Rafael was also designed as the first co-educational residence hall, with separate wings of the buildings for men and women. In addition to a new dining commons, recreational facilities were planned for the lagoon 'island' which included baseball, football, and soccer fields.

Institute of Theoretical Physics-- Kohn Hall floor plan
subject: University of California, Santa Barbara
description: This is an early floor plan of the original building for Kohn Hall, designed by Michael Graves. The Kavli Institute of Theoretical Physics is a world-renown research facility where physicists meet to collaborate on cutting edge research and theoretical questions. The scientists come to UCSB for extended periods of time (anywhere from one week to many months) to meet and discuss new problems in the field. The Kohn Building was originally designed in 1994 by architect Michael Graves, with an addition completed in 2004, also by Graves. The building was designed specifically to foster interactions between scientists, so offices and hallways are laid out in such a manner as to facilitate random meetings and impromptu discussions (with a number of blackboards in communal spaces for working out complex theoretical issues). Michael Graves is known for being one of the leading examples of postmodern architecture. In addition to building iconic commercial and public buildings (like the Denver Public Library and an expansion of the Whitney Museum of American Art), he was a Professor of Architecture at Princeton University and a designer for Alessi and Target. His postmodern and urbanist style was reflected in the use of color and classical elements in new and varied ways.

The Arts buildings were clustered towards the Cliff Drive side of campus, while the Science buildings were closer to the ocean. Dormitories and a student union were in the area of the SBCC west campus, with a large amphitheater and tennis courts along Loma Alta Drive. The football stadium had been built in 1940, and other athletic buildings were added to the area below the mesa, along with 'beach sports' on west beach, and 'yachting' in the harbor.

Long Range Plan-- 1990
subject: University of California, Santa Barbara
description: This birds eye view of campus shows the build-out of the land in 1990. Many of the original WWII buildings still remain, and the vehicle flow around the perimeter of campus is greatly reduced from the earlier plans. The large expanse of surface parking lots along the western edge of campus were eventually replaced with the Student Resource Building, Parking Structure #22, and the Education and Social Sciences buildings. Additionally, the wide expanse of open field just to the north of Robertson Gymnasium has been filled in with multiple recreational facilities and practice fields. This map shows a particular instance in time, before the large building boom of the '90s, where large surface parking lots dominate the landscape, and open space existed along the perimeter of the campus.

Campus Landscape Plan -- Soule and Murphy
subject: University of California, Santa Barbara
description: A rendering of the landscape plan for the campus. This plan orients south at the top of the plan, with the lagoon and ocean at the top and left of the image. Three quadrangles (south, east, and northwest) are shown originating from a central point. A semi-circle of residence halls faces the lagoon, with an outdoor theater at the water's edge. The recreational area at the lower right contains baseball diamond, running track, driving range, football field, and general athletic fields separated into men's and women's. Landscaping is highlighted in this plan, including an arboretum and natural landscaping around the lagoon. This plan was not adopted; the only buildings Soule & Murphy built were Webb Hall and Library I (with Chester Carjola).

Long Range Development Plan- 1975
subject: University of California, Santa Barbara
description: The long range plan from 1975 shows a much greater concern for the adjacent community of Isla Vista. A larger concentration of university buildings is shown in the 'loop' area, as well as trees and pedestrian-friendly boulevards. Unlike the 1963 plan, the 1975 does not include an expansion of Highway 217 through the slough to the north of the campus mesa. The increase in environmental awareness after the 1969 oil spill in the Santa Barbara Channel changed the plans to be more eco-friendly.

Long Range Development Plan- 1963
subject: University of California, Santa Barbara
description: This long range plan was produced by executive architect Charles Luckman Associates. It shows a very concentrated build-up of academic buildings and residence halls, as well as expansion along El Collegio Road. The extension of Highway 217 along the north side of campus, along with the addition of more Married Student Housing and the concentration of fraternities and sororities on campus are main differences with earlier plans. With large parking lots outlining the periphery, the interior of the campus remains easily reachable on foot.

The first two University buildings constructed are seen in the middle-lower-right (the Carjola-designed library) and immediately to the left of the eucalyptus windrow (the Soule and Murphy designed Science Building, now Webb Hall). This image clearly shows the large number of Marine Base buildings that were utilized by the University. The row of one-story building on the lower left corner of the photograph were the men's dormitories, the "Old Gym" is along the lower right side of the image, and the sweeping half-circle of two-story buildings which were used as offices and classrooms.

Residence Hall #5 -- San Nicholas Hall
subject: University of California, Santa Barbara
description: A rendering of the view from the southeast, towards the northwest, with the lagoon off to the far left side. Designed by Charles Luckman, the building utilizes some of the design motifs of the earlier campus buildings, and combines some of the later vertical elements into the towers. The one-story entrance gives a sense of humanness to the scale of the towers.

Engineering Building -- Harold Frank Hall
subject: University of California, Santa Barbara
description: A rendering of the south side of the building, from the current location of the Bren School, looking north. This building housed the newly formed College of Engineering, which included electrical, mechanical, chemical, and computer engineering departments. The use of patterned concrete block, along with moldings and the angular arches over each window are representative of the "later campus standard" or extended architectural vocabulary of Charles Luckman Associates, campus architects from 1958 until 1968. The building now houses the offices of the Computer Science and Electrical and Computer Engineering departments, as well as administrative offices.

Chemistry Building
subject: University of California, Santa Barbara
description: A rendering of the Chemistry Building, taken from the southern edge of the East Lawn, looking north. This building echoes some of the extended architectural vocabulary of the late campus standard, with patterned concrete block, dentil mouldings under the concrete roof lines, angular arches, and the use of the one-story building to give a more human scale to the larger building. The architectural firm Albert C. Martin and Associates was formed in 1906, and is still managed today by the same family. The firm was one of the most prolific designers of commercial structures in downtown Los Angeles in the mid-twentieth century. Some of their notable buildings include the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power headquarters, ARCO Plaza, and the master plan for Westlake Village. The firm also designed the Woodhouse laboratory at UCSB in 1963.

University Center
subject: University of California, Santa Barbara
description: A rendering of the original University Center design. The UCen is situated with a view over the lagoon and towards the ocean, south of, and between the Music Building and the Arts Building. The UCen has had multiple additions and alterations, though the original concrete block piers can still be seen lining the lower patio, and the hipped tile roof over the center portion of the building is also intact. Wallace Arendt (1917-1975), Glen Mosher (1914-2013?), and Robert Grant (1928-2017) were partners in an architecture firm in Santa Barbara from the mid-1950s until the mid-1970s. They designed many residences in Hope Ranch, Goleta, and Santa Barbara, as well as civic buildings, schools, and commercial buildings. At UCSB, they designed the Marine Science Lab (1964), Music II (1969), UCen I (1966), Library IV (1977), and University House (1964). In the 1980s, the firm changed its name to Grant, Pederson, Phillips and designed the Recreation Center; in the 1990s, the name changed again to Phillips Metsch Sweeney Moore Architects (PMSM) and designed the Psychology East building.

Library Building Unit #3
subject: University of California, Santa Barbara
description: Almost immediately after the first library building was built in 1952, plans for an addition were being drawn up. And within a year of completing Library II, planning began in 1962 for Library III, which was completed in 1967. The growth of the library mirrors the expansion of the university's academic vision. In 1952, only Bachelor's degrees were issued, by 1961 Master's degrees, and by 1967 there was a need for a research library capable of fulfilling the research needs of PhD's. This building signals a shift away from the Pereira & Luckman campus plan towards a more eclectic style. The color of the vertical columns references the campus style, but the size and scale dwarf the surrounding 2-story buildings. The architectural firm Frost & Greer (also known as Cooke, Frost & Greer) designed the library's 8-story tower to hold an expanding number of books, as well as personal study carrels for faculty and graduate students.

The design blends the addition seamlessly with the original building: patterned concrete block, hipped roofs, and exterior walkways and courtyard allow for easy integration with the earlier style. Wallace Arendt (1917-1975), Glen Mosher (1914-2013?), and Robert Grant (1928-2017) were partners in an architecture firm in Santa Barbara from the mid-1950s until the mid-1970s.

It was the first permanent home for the Social Science and Foreign Language Departments, and included office space and classrooms. Norman Marsh (1871-1955), David Smith (1886-1964), and Herbert Powell (1898-1996) designed many commercial and educational buildings throughout Southern California; the firm were also university architects at the University of Southern California. After this rendering of Girvetz Hall was completed, they changed their name to Smith, Powell & Morgridge, and the firm completed the original Girvetz as well as its addition in 1966. The firm changed its name again to Powell, Morgridge, Richards & Coghlan and designed Buchanan Hall (1967), Phelps Hall (1968), Ellison Hall (1969), and South Hall (1971). Each of the later buildings carries some of the stylistic design features of the original campus standards.

Marine Laboratory-- Marine Science Institute
subject: University of California, Santa Barbara
description: The beach-side location allows for sea water to be pumped into the building for aquatic experiments, some of which is also distributed to other buildings on campus. Prior to construction of the building, it was noted in the specifications the detrimental effects of sea water on most building materials, and that care should be taken to mitigate the risk of sea water corrosion on the structure. This site was originally used as the water and sewage filtration plant for the Marine Air Base. Wallace Arendt (1917-1975), Glen Mosher (1914-2013?), and Robert Grant (1928-2017) were partners in an architecture firm in Santa Barbara from the mid-1950s until the mid-1970s.

Library Unit 1
subject: University of California, Santa Barbara
description: The original library building, built in 1952, was part of the original Soule and Murphy master plan for the UCSB campus. It was designed by Chester Carjola, a leading Santa Barbara architect who worked closely with Soule and Murphy on the campus plans. Donald C. Davidson, University Librarian from 1947-1977, also played a large role in creating the library. As a member of the campus building committee, he worked with the various architects to design the buildings to fit the needs of the growing university. The library's low tiled roof, patterned brick, and light colored walls reflect both the traditional Spanish influence and modernist materials. Originally built at a cost of just over one million dollars, the Library was state-of-the-art at the time of construction. Open stacks, group and individual study tables, typing room, audio/visual rooms, classrooms, patios, and sun decks made the Library design cutting edge for the time.

description: A rendering of Campbell Hall, looking northeast towards the main entrance. East Hall (now Phelps Hall) is off to the right and behind. Campbell Hall was named in honor of John and Ina Therese Campbell, founders of the Santa Barbara Campus Scholarship fund. According to UCSB Library materials, the construction of Campbell Hall was made possible by the sale and lease of the Mesa and Riviera campuses. The 860 seat theater is the largest venue on campus and is the site for large lecture classes, concerts, and public events (through Arts and Lectures series). Prior to Campbell Hall's construction in 1961, the largest performance venue on campus was a Marine Base era "movie house." In justifying a new building, the committee cited: "the flat floor makes viewing excruciatingly uncomfortable... the discomfort of the metal folding chairs destroys attention after thirty minutes... the structure would not pass present building codes-- in fact, firemen must be physically present at all performances."
