Situated at the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains, two new buildings are keystones in Chaffey College's campus master plan to create an "Arts Village" that consolidates its once-scattered arts programs. Consisting of a smaller Music Building and the larger Art Center, the new buildings reinforce circulation and gathering areas within the precinct's existing buildings while fostering interdisciplinary interaction among students and faculty. Expansive windows and bi-fold doors within the Art Center create transparency between indoor and outdoor activity, while the building itself acts as a campus gateway, providing a visual reference to the new arts village.
