Posted September 18, 200915 yr Just for nostaligia, I'm wondering if someone out there has any photos of the lobby of the Creative Arts Center at Wright State University as it originally looked, before it was "renovated". The building opened around 1974 and was very "modern" seeming to me (I was a child then), although in hindsight its design was probably more '60s than '70s. IIRC the interior was pretty much unchanged through the 1980s. The only photo I could find online is this one (click) which is from 2007. It shows they've still got the original walls, ducts and hanging orbs, but the skylights and carpet have been "modernized". I don't recall the big banners jutting out from the walls either. The tackiness of the renovations and the inconsistent aesthetic, plus the fact that it's just not how I remember it, is all rather jarring to see now. I want to see the way it was before they updated it. Likewise, the Sinclair Community College library had a similar look in the early '80s, and that's long gone now, too. Any photos of those good old days would be great to see.
