Uncommon Beauty: Scripps' Lasting Landscapes and the Getty's Campus Heritage Initiative
- Rating: No Rating
Eric T. Haskell, professor at Scripps College, discusses the grant received by the Getty Campus Heritage Initiative here:
"Our discussions over the two-year period of the grant covered a vast range of topics associated with Scripps' "built environment" (art, architecture, landscape architecture) that eventually gave shape to the Blueprint. After an introduction which states the purpose and goals of the document, a considerable segment devoted to site history carefully chronicles changes made to the landscape over time. This exercise facilitated our division of the campus into various precincts: the historic core constructed by the original architect and landscape architect (1927-39), the east campus (1958-71), and the west campus (1990-present)."
