Artifact

As we begin to think about the next phase in the life of the Chofu Campus, the discovery of one of the original renderings of the campus proved timely. This hand painted view of the campus was produced in 1962 by the architects Corlett and Spackman. Hailing from California, the company had just completed the construction of the main arena for the 1960 Winter Olympics in Squaw Valley, CA. They had previously designed the Center Street School in Castro Valley and brought their indoor-outdoor California-style design to the Tokyo suburbs. With the exception of the Little Theater and MPR, the rest of the buildings shown here remain in use almost sixty years later.
