Project
CI005.S1.1914.PR1
Description:
In 1914 Oud designed a combination shop and dwelling in Heemstede for upholsterer, Mr G.S. Van Bakel. The shop and dwelling shared the same entryway while the rear elevation consisted of a flat surface within a united facade. Oud had originally planned for one large window on the front facade but changed his design because the client argued that two windows were too costly (Taverne et al. 2001, 75). The project series includes drawings of both an L-shaped and a rectangular design.

Description:
- The largest elevation shows Barcelona chairs, a table, and a sculpture within the house. The detail for the upper wall suggests that the architect planned to use an irregular stone such as field stone for the cladding, with steel for the roof coping.

The Dark Edge of a Clear-cut
In a conversation moderated by Louise Désy, CCA Curator, Photographs, Lorraine Gilbert presents her work: The documentation of landscapes I have lived and worked in has resulted in a body of work that questions our place within nature and within our built environments. The seemingly objective nature of the way I have pictured these natural and urban spaces, has given way(...)

Description:
This album depicts photographs, plans, sketches of Stonehenge and texts. Preface is signed by Sir Henry James, 29th May 1867, Southhampton. Album has appendix and List of Books inserted at the end. "Col. Sir Henry James, Director-General of the Ordnance Survey, was a strong believer that photography had to be utilized as a major tool for mapping and survey work and he employed the Royal Engineers for that purpose. Colonel James appears in several of the Stonehenge photographs published by the Ordnance Survey. [...] Stonehenge is the world's most famous, large megalithic stone circle and is usually designated as a site used for religious worship in Neolithic Britain. However, the first use of this locality for documented ritual activity goes back to the Mesolithic and the erection of several large totem poles perhaps as early as 8,000 BC (Stonehenge O). Lunar observations preceded the construction of a causeway c.3200 BC, followed by an earth circle and Heel Stones c.3100 BC (Stonehenge 1a) and the Aubrey Holes (Stonehenge 1b). The Stonehenge site was then abandoned for about 1,000 years when large bluestones quarried in Wales were brought to the site and made into the Double Bluestone Circle with Avenue. 2150 BC (Stonehenge II). Soon thereafter sarsen stones were brought in from Avebury to build the great Sarsen Circle and Trilithon Horseshoe, 2100 BC (Stonehenge IIIz). Bluestones were brought back and added as the Bluestone Circle and Bluestone Horseshoe to the sarsen monument, 1800 BC (Stonehenge IIId). The sacred avenue was extended to the River Avon, 1100 BC (Stonehenge IV), the last phase of megalithic construction at this site. Note that the great stone circle and all construction at the Stonehenge site was completed several hundred years before we can postulate Celtic druids in the vicinity. We can only mention in passing that Stonehenge was embedded within a large ritual complex, where several of the ten megalithic constructions were also monumental in scale. Integration between these structures may not have been well planned in advance, but assuredly was articulated as each was built." Neolithic Britian Online.
