Foothill College Construction 1959_044

A sign is erected announcing the construction of Foothill College. Note that the architectural firm of Ernest J. Kump joined forces with Masten and Hurd to form Architects Associated. These two famous architectural firms only worked together on two projects: Foothill College and De Anza College. Both college designs won the coveted American Institute of Architects Honor Award. The firm Sasaki, Walker & Associates was tasked with the site layout, including landscaping, subtly infusing elements of a Japanese garden.
