Subject The topic of the resource Art & Architecture; Ford, O'Neil; Libraries - Texas - Denton; concrete lattice; breezeway; Spanish architecture Description An account of the resource During the 1968 expansion of the Emily Fowler Library, O'Neil Ford designed and commissioned a concrete lattice built on the south side of the library to enclose a courtyard built for children only. A pergola and hanging pottery lamps, a brick courtyard with a fountain, and sculptures completed the picture. The lattice remained until the 2002 renovation of the library and was then removed. For the 1981 expansion, the front entrance of the library was shifted and a covered breezeway was added with a matching concrete lattice that shielded the front staff windows and garden while allowing both air and light to filter through. It was suggested that based on the extrusion lines on the back of the tiles, they were manufactured, although we do not know who made them. It was also suggested that because the tiles do not align perfectly that they were pieced together by hand and that O'Neil Ford would probably have used local Hispanic craftsmen who knew this style of work. The lattice was painted in 2008.

Description An account of the resource Concrete lattice on the south side of the Emily Fowler Library. Architect O'Neil Ford based the design on the Spanish terracotta lattice to provide ventilation and filtered light while enclosing the children's garden from adults. A pergola with hanging pottery lamps designed by Beaumont Mood and a brick courtyard with a small fountain completed the picture. During the 2002 renovation of the building, this lattice was torn down, although the pergola and hanging lamps remain. The bricks had become skewed over time by the shifting soil and were removed in 2020 and replaced by a concrete sidewalk. Also in 2020, during the Covid pandemic, vandals broke two of the pottery globes. To protect the remaining lamps, the Parks Department, removed them and placed them in storage. The pottery shards were cleaned by library staff and are now housed in the Emily Fowler Library's Special Collections Department.
