Description:
- This album contains original designs - mostly preliminary drawings - by Charles and possibly Hubert Rohault de Fleury for theatres and miscellaneous projects, record drawings and prints of French, and perhaps Italian, theatres, and prints for a diverse collection of other French subjects. Drawings and prints for theatres include: traced plans, perhaps of Italian theatres; preliminary plans for theatres designed by Charles Rohault de Fleury; a plan of Théâtre de variétés, Paris, signed by the architect, Jacques Cellérier; prints of Théâtre de l'Odéon, Paris, designed by Charles de Wailly and Marie-Joseph Peyre; a print of Théâtre de la Porte Saint-Martin, Paris, designed by Nicolas Lenoir; a proposal for an opera house, Paris, by Hector Horeau with a plan and perspective; and an engraving of the inscription for the first stone of the Grand-Théâtre, Lyon, designed by Antoine-Marie Chenavard and Jean Pollet. The remaining prints in the album date from the 18th and 19th centuries and include: a competition entry by Louis-Pierre Baltard for a monument at Bordeaux dedicated to the triumphs of the Republican army and to peace; a stable for the Czarina commissioned by Peter I and designed by François Bruant; decorations by Victor Louis for the "fêtes de paix" of 1763 and the inauguration of an equestrian statue of Louis XV for the Théâtre italien dedicated to the Marquis de Marigny; a funerary temple by Louis-Jean Desprez dedicated to Voltaire; a stable with two manèges by Jean François de Neufforge; a competition entry for an obelisk for Pont-Neuf, Paris, by Thomas Pierre Baraguay; a plan and two engravings of the Cirque for the Confédération générale, 14 July 1790, on the Champ-de-Mars; an advertising flyer for Louis Ambroise Dubut's book, "Architecture civile: maison de ville et de campagne"; and a prospectus and print of the Néothermes, rue de la Victoire, Paris, designed by Jean Charles Bringol. Three design drawings are for two projects by Charles Rohault de Fleury - an iron arcade for boulevard du Temple, Paris, and a bathroom or public bath (DR1974:0002:010:013, DR1974:0002:010:014 and DR1974:0002:010:044).

Description:
This series documents fifty of Günter Günschel's architectural projects. Material in this file was produced between 1943 and 2006. Günschel's projects are mainly conceptual. However, he did craft a few models and realised small scale structures, mainly for his dome projects. Only a few projects were designed for specific geographic locations. Most of these were located in Germany, but there was also one for France and one for the United States. Documenting the series are conceptual sketches and drawings, stats, black-and-white photographs, photomontages, and a few textual records.

Description:
Sub-series documents competition entries and projects by James Stirling, and by the successive firms of James Stirling; Stirling and Gowan; James Stirling and Partner; James Stirling, Michael Wilford, and Associates; Michael Wilford and Partners; and Michael Wilford GmbH. Several projects were carried out in association with other architects, including Léon Krier, Walter Nägeli, and the firms of Giancarlo de Carlo and of Marlies Hentrup Norbert Heyer. A majority of projects were designed for London, England and other locations in England and Scotland, Germany and the United States. Other projects were designed for Italy, Iran, Japan, France, Algeria, Spain, Netherlands, Kenya, Qatar, Canada, Singapore and Switzerland. Material in this sub-series was produced between 1951 and probably 2004. The publication drawings for Stirling's projects were often drawn by Leon Krier, Russell Bevington, or Ulrich Schaad ('British Architecture Today', 1991). Sub-series contains reference drawings, conceptual and design development drawings, publication and presentation drawings and panels, and working drawings. It also contains photographic materials, textual records, models and artefacts.

Architectural projects
AP018.S1
Description:
The Architectural Projects series, 1945-1986, is the largest series in the fonds and documents the projects worked on by Parkin’s two firms throughout his career. These projects include built work, urban planning, proposals, competitions and feasibility studies. The majority of the projects were based in Toronto and the surrounding area, but projects from across Canada and some international projects in the Caribbean, Middle East, and Northern Africa are also included. These individual projects were identified and separated based on distinct project numbers assigned by the creating offices. The general numbering rule at the offices was two digits to represent the year, followed by two or three digits to represent the consecutive project number for that year (YY###). For instance the 7th project taken on in the year 1980 would be assigned the project number 8007. This chronological ordering has been respected in the arrangement of this series. These projects are recorded primarily through textual records and drawings, but some photographs, paintings, artefacts and one book are also included in this series. The amount of drawings and textual materials for the projects vary greatly. Materials for projects before 1971, from the firm John B. Parkin Associates, are very sparse, sometimes with only a few files or drawings representing a project. Materials after 1971, from the firm Parkin Architects Planners, are much more complete and often contain drawings from initial sketches to finished construction work. Among these drawings are plans, elevations, sections, details, perspectives, and mechanical, electrical and structural drawings. Textual records for these projects typically include correspondence, meeting minutes, specifications, site reports, consultancy files and other construction documentation. The photographic materials in this series often show construction progress and completed work. Also present are presentation panels with mounted drawings, photographs and paintings for some projects. The artefacts typically consist of material samples for construction. The textual records for projects are almost always in English, but some drawings are in French or are bilingual for projects commissioned by the Government of Canada. Although John C. Parkin is the creator of this series, the partners at his firms and other employees played a significant role as creators of the contents. Especially in the material from Parkin Architects Planners, the names of his partners such as J.B. Mar, P.H. Warren, D.L. Wilson, and L. Payne are often marked as authors of the materials.
