Álvaro Siza fonds
Álvaro Siza fonds
Reference number:
AP178
Description:
The Álvaro Siza fonds documents the architectural work of Portuguese architect Álvaro Siza. Records in this fonds document Siza’s projects from 1958-2012, including built and unbuilt designs. A collaborative project was established between the Canadian Centre for Architecture (CCA), Fundação de Serralves, and Fundação Calouste Gulbenkian to allow for international research and access to the archive. The archive is shared by the three institutions with each institution holding different projects while collaborating on the descriptive work and increasing the visibility of the archive. The holdings at both the Fundação de Serralves and Fundação Calouste Gulbenkian focus on Siza’s Portuguese projects, while the portion of the archive held by the CCA mainly includes Siza’s projects abroad. All three institutions are committed to describing the archive and making it accessible for scholarly research. The processing of the Siza archive held by the CCA has been divided into four phases to allow for access to parts of the archive while still in process. For the first, second, and third phases, the processing archivist has described the projects from the fifties, sixties, and seventies, as well as projects for the IBA competition in Berlin, urban renewal projects in The Hague from the eighties, urban plans, museums, and individual houses between 1980 and 2000. The processing archivist has also described approximately 203 sketchbooks. Many of these sketchbooks include sketches related to architectural projects which were processed. The complete list of projects processed by the CCA to date can be found in series AP178.S1. The bulk of the Álvaro Siza fonds is arranged in Series AP178.S1, which contains documentation for over 200 of Siza’s architectural projects. Records in this archive are predominantly from 1970 to 2000. Series AP178.S1 mainly contains conceptual, design development, presentation, and working drawings. Also included are photographic materials, models, born digital records, and textual documentation, which include correspondence, project proposals, and notes. The architect’s creative process is captured in 282 sketchbooks arranged in Series AP178.S2. In all there are approximately 60 000 drawings, 3000 folders of textual documentation, 9.46 linear meters of photographs and negatives, 6,545 slides, 250 CD-ROMS, 101 floppy disks, and 371 models that document the architectural activities of Siza and his office. Among the drawings are sketches by Siza on various items, such as napkins, receipts, envelopes, or on the back of working drawings. The fonds contains several types of architectural projects including residential buildings, museums, universities, urban plans, offices, and city restorations. Of particular significance are the sketchbooks, comprised of sketches for architectural projects, Siza’s travels, people, and animals as well as notes and draft letters. The sketchbooks are organized in chronological order, starting in the late 1970’s to the beginning of the 2000’s. Locations, notes, and dates have also been identified on the front of each sketchbook along with the sketchbook number. The sketchbooks provide a unique perspective of Siza’s use of drawing as part of his work process.

Angelo Bucci, architect and professor at the University of São Paulo, Brazil, addresses the violence and changing environment of São Paulo in search of new urban forms.

DR1974:0002:035:001-034
Description:
- This album consists primarily of preliminary and design development drawings for diverse projects - mostly domestic - from the early years of Hubert Rohault de Fleury's career. Some of the fifteen more finished drawings in wash and watercolour are probably presentation drawings. Many of the drawings are inscribed with illegible or partially legible notations concerning the project's location, client, date and other particulars. There are seven drawings for a house on rue d'Aguesseau, Paris, probably the Rohault de Fleury family residence (DR1974:0002:035:002 - DR1974:OOO2:035:006 R/V) and several drawings for a house for Rohault de Fleury's uncle on rue Saint-Romain, Paris (DR1974:0002:035:012 V). Several drawings are after plates published in Durand's "Précis des Leçons d'architecture données à l'école Royale Polytechnique (1802-1805)": plans on drawings DR1974:0002:035:011 V, DR1974:0002:035:012 R are adapted from plate 25 and combined with façades designed by Rohault de Fleury, and drawing DR1974:0002:035:013 R is based on an engraving by Charles-Pierre-Joseph Normand (pl. 23) of Hôtel Lathuille in Paris which was designed by Jean-Nicolas-Louis Durand (1788). Perspective sketches and plans are included for the restoration of a château in Rocheux [?] for M. le Trône (DR1974:0002:035:017 R) and for the renovation for the house at Domaine de la Vallée (DR1974:0002:035:020). The drawing for a country villa was executed in 1804, while Rohault de Fleury was in Rome studying at the French Academy (DR1974:0002:035:021 R). The conceptual drawing of a small "orchestre" and the elevations of a gallery and portico gate are inscribed "Jardin du Frascati", and are perhaps travel sketches or projects executed while Rohault de Fleury was in Rome (DR1974:0002:035:032 V, DR1974:002:035:033 R, and DR1974:0002:035:034). Also included in the album are two plans for part of the Passage du saumon in Paris (DR1974:0002:035:014 R), a plan, elevation and section for a rustic pavilion for M. Abrial (DR1974:0002:035:024 V), a plan for a shepherd's house in St. Cueufin [?] (DR1974:0002:035:021 V), a house for M. Quitton in Paris (DR1974:0002:035:026 - DR1974:0002:035:027), a section, elevation and plan for a sheepfold (DR1974:0002:035:033 V) and a perspective for a rustic cabin (DR1974:0002:035:034). The album also contains a number of drawings for Empire-style interior design projects: interior wall elevations, furniture drawings, and plans, elevations and perspectives for a bed alcove.
