This is a ink stipple drawing of the architecturally innovative
Geisel Library on the University of California Campus in San Diego.
The Geisel Library is one of the most innovative architectural statements
of the last century. The sculptural building is constructed of reinforced
concrete and glass and was designed by William L. Pereira Associates.
Enthusiastic architecture and design aficionados have flocked to the
exterior of the building, clearly awed by its innovative form. The library
was simply known as The University Library Building until late 1995
when the University renamed the library after Theodor Seuss and Audrey
S. Geisel, the creator of the series of Dr. Seuss children’s books
and his wife, in honor of the couples contributions to the library and
their efforts to improve literacy. |
