The Art Department also holds classes in as many as four other buildings on campus. My proposal is to consolidate the Art Department’s activities into one formal building. I call this building The Visual Arts Plant. The Visual Arts Plant contains the rooms, equipment, machinery, tools, instruments, and fixtures necessary to facilitate and promote a visual arts education. This thesis is a documentation of my ideas for The Visual Arts Plants.iv, 36 leavesapplication/pdfen-USIn CopyrightVirginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. -- Buildings -- Designs and plansVirginia Polytechnic Institute and State University -- Buildings -- Designs and plansLD5655.V855 1986.I537Art schools -- Virginia -- Blacksburg -- Designs and plansThe visual arts plantThesis
