Project
AP075.S1.2017.PR02
Description:
Project series documents Cornelia Hahn Oberlander's work as a consulting landscape architect for the design of the garden courtyard of the National Gallery of Canada in Ottawa, Ontario. Oberlander worked on this project from 2016-2017 with Enns Gauthier Landscape Architects. The design consists in creating a reference to canadian landscape as the courtyard is located in the middle of the Canadian art gallery. The landscape comprises a raised topography composed of three moss and fern mounds with stacked escarpment stone wall referencing to the geology of the Canadian Shield and separating the mounds from a stone laid surface imitating a river bed. The courtyard also includes a patio space. The garden court was later known as the Fred & Elizabeth Fountain Garden Court and was unveiled in March 2018. The project series contains sketches of grading and planting, perspective views and layout plans, correspondence with clients and final concept plans.

AP018.S1.1976.PR26
Description:
This project series documents the furnishing of the education offices at the Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO) in Toronto in 1976. The office identified the project number as 7621. This project followed the construction of the Education and Extension (E&E) offices during Phase II of the expansion of the AGO. Beginning in 1969, Parkin’s firm was hired as the head architects for the AGO’s massive expansion program that would span more than a decade. This is one project relating to the expansion of the art gallery. It should be noted that while AGO project contracts were originally given to John B. Parkin Associates, John C. Parkin continued the project under his new firm, Parkin Architects Planners, after parting ways with partner John B. Parkin in 1971. The project is recorded through a letter to the client and a drawing of the office layout dating from 1976.

Project
AP178.S1.1995.PR07
Description:
This project series documents the Renovação e extensão do Museu Stedelijk in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 57/90. The office assigned the date 1995 to this project. At the beginning of the nineties, Rem Koolhaas, Wim Quist, Carel Weeber, and Robert Venturi were invited to propose a design for the extension and renovations of the Stedelijk Museum. Robert Venturi was the architect selected, but the project was suspended in 1993 due to the infeasibility of the program and budget restrictions. The following year, five applicants, including Siza, were asked to present a new design to a committee. In December 1995, Siza was officially announced as the new design architect for the project by the city of Amsterdam. The firm A+D+P was selected as the executive architect. Siza's first proposal was presented in 1998. His master plan included the demolition of the Marmottenhuis, the renovation of the 19th-century patios, and the relocation of the public toilets to the basement in order to create exhibition halls. The master plan also included the construction of three new wings and two underground passages to connect the newer and older buildings. A new wing, located to one side of Sandbergplein, included offices in the basement and on the ground floor as well as exhibition halls on the first floor. A new building surrounding the museum garden included storage space in the basement, a restaurant on the ground floor, and exhibition halls at the first floor. Construction work was projected to start in June 2000, however due to budget restrictions the project was not realized and a new competition was held in 2004. The firm Benthem Crouwel Architects realized the project. Documenting this project are sketches, studies, preliminary drawings, plans, and working drawings. Textual materials include project documentation and correspondence. Photographic materials document the models and project site.
