Arthur C. Clarke Home Pictorial Report - Part One



In these next articles i'm posting pictures of my pictorial report at Arthur C. Clarke home in Colombo. All pictures have been voluntarily uploaded in full resolution and, by a click on each picture,  you'll be able to zoom in them and discover Arthur C. Clarke office in details. Because the pictures are in high-res they may take sometime to appear on the page. If some are missing, please reload the page. To avoid a too long wait, i've limited the number of pictures per page and divided the report in several articles.

All pictures are copyright Alain Littaye and i thank you by advance to contact me at: lawrence55@wanadoo.fr if you want to use any of them.

We'll start by the entrance of Arthur C.Clarke home and what i call his "wall of awards". Above, the house as seen from outside. Below, the name of Arthur C. Clarke is always there, close to the entrance door.




The great Moon background is the first thing a visitor sees when he enter, before taking the stairs to the first floor.




Close to this "Moon" entrance there is a window in which are displayed different Arthur C Clarke souvenirs, including one of "Winner of Playboy Editorial Award"!




When you walk up the stairs, you'll see on the right an original poster for Stanley Kubrick's 2001 : A Space Odyssey.






A funny sign that you can't miss climbing the stairs "Mars: 35.000.000 Miles" !




At the top of the stairs, surprise, the original 1945 text of Arthur C. Clarke depicting his concept of a series of geo-stationery satellites, as well as the certificate of five shares of the "Communications Satellite Corporation".
