Synopsis:
Victor Depocas fonds is composed of documents and graphic materials produced between 1921 and 1986, predominantly between 1956 and 1984. It records Depocas activities as a member of the Province of Québec Association of Architects (A.A.P.Q.), the Ordre d’Architects du Québec (O.A.P.), and the Commission des monuments historiques du Québec; his activities as a Professor of architectural composition at l’École de Beaux-arts de Montréal (1953-1957); and his work as a professional architect along with general office files of the short-life firms David & Depocas and Deshaies & Depocas (1946-1950).

- Suzanne K. Williamson indicates that this photograph shows towers "O" and "P" of the second enclosure of the Krak de Chevaliers Castle, Ottoman Empire (now Syria) from the west (Nov. 1986). Further research should include verification of this information and identification of the source(s) from which it was obtained. The cardinal point indicated in the title, also provided by Williamson, is presumed to be correct.

Description:
This directory contains a large number of subdirectories containing the working files for O/K Apartment. The files appear to have been copied over at intervals during the project. They show the evolution of the projects and changes that occurred over time; however, this means that there are also a large number of duplicates. Each directory represents the work over a particular time period. Within these directories, the files have three major groupings: First, there are a large number of word processing files which document KOL/MACs interactions with the engineers, contractors, and clients. There is also documentation for construction specifications, meeting minutes, and other various notes. Second, there are a number of CAD files, including wireframe drawings, floorplans, and blueprints, which document the evolving design of the O/K Apartment. These are particularly rich in terms of furniture design. Third, there are a large number of still images showing renderings of the apartment; other various architectural drawings are also present, particularly including wireframe drawings and floorplans exported to raster image formats. Most common file formats: Microsoft Word for Macintosh Document, ClarisWorks Word Processor, Microstation CAD Drawing, Tagged Image File Format.

Description:
This project, 1994-2001, contains material related to the Ost/Kuttner Apartment, a built residential project in New York City. Described by its clients as “Cleopatra’s submarine,” the O/K Apartment converts two adjacent units in a pre-World War II building in New York into a single but divisible space. The Apartment is organized into areas defined less by their programmatic identity—bathroom, bedroom, living room—than by a series of undulating landscapes made up of custom, function-bridging forms, which KOL/MAC developed by digitally compositing cross-sections of everyday domestic objects. To produce the pieces, the architects worked intensively with contractors in a process directly informed by computer-aided fabrication in a variety of fields including ship-building, bobsled design, and stage design. The digital project records are largely in word processing formats, namely Microsoft Word for Mac and ClarisWorks, as well as images in TIF, JPEG, and Mac Pict image formats. There are also a large number of Microstation CAD drawings. There are two major groupings within the digital material: First, there is a body of video and still images. These consist of screen captures of renderings and other digital models. There are also images and HTML for a related website, a photograph viewer showing pictures of a built, physical model of the apartment. Of note, there are two videos which document the early construction of the Apartment, as well as the construction of the shower/bed. The second grouping consists of construction and design documentation. This consists of correspondence, invoices, and other word processing documents which show KOL/MAC’s work with the client, contractor, engineer, and other stakeholders. They also contain a large number of design files and images which document the evolving design of the Apartment. KOL/MAC versioned their working files at certain intervals, and each version represents a snapshot of the working files at a particular time. There is a substantial amount of duplication across these files. There is also a physical component to the records, including three material samples from the apartment, as well as 28 floorplans for the bid set, 6 floorplans, and 2 blueprints. There is also .3 linear meters of textual records which document KOL/MAC’s work with the client, contractor, and sub-contractor during construction.
