RISD Buildings and Open Spaces
The collection contains images of the campus and the local Providence neighborhood as well as the Tillinghast Farm in Barrington, RI. The images include exterior and interior views, construction models and illustrations, and streetscapes. The collection documents the work of architects Joseph Brown, William T. Aldrich, Richard Upjohn, Howard Hoppin, James C. Bucklin, and Thomas Alexander Teft. The oldest building is Market House, designed by Brown in 1773. The collection was digitized and described by Kate MacBain, a Simmons College School of Library and Information Science intern during the 2012 spring semester.
This collection is part of RISD Archives, hosted by Rhode Island School of Design.
