Abstract

After more than 30 years in borrowed and rented quarters, Layton School of Art in Milwaukee is now occupying a home of its own. Its simple, streamlined new building, designed by two Layton faculty members, Edgar Bartolucci and John Waldheim, stands on a wooded bluff overlooking Lake Michigan in a residential section yet close to the heart of a busy industrial city. The building, of cantilever construction with glass walls from groundline to parapet, has attracted thousands of visitors in recent months and has aroused much admiring comment for the natural beauty of its setting and for its thoroughly contemporary architecture.
