Project
AP056.S1.1984.PR01
Description:
This project series documents the interiors of the Marc Laurent store at 110 Bloor Street West in Toronto from 1984-1986. A project number assigned by the office is not identifiable. This project consisted of alterations to the interior of the high end retail store prior to the founding of KPMB, by Bruce Kuwabara and Thomas Payne. The design consisted of the removal and replacement of lighting fixtures, walls, change rooms and window displays. The project also included the design of a cash counter and new display furnishings such as mobile units, rack systems and a parallelogram unit. The rack system was made so that retail workers could easily reconfigure the design and locations of the racks based on merchandizing needs. Dark colours were used throughout the store including for the flooring, walls, and furnishings. The project is recorded through original drawings and a photograph dating from 1988 to around 1989. The drawings consist of a set of sections, plans, details for display and counter furnishings issued for construction, sketch plans, perspectives, and elevations. The photograph shows the finished interiors.

Description:
This project series documents the plant expansion program for the IBM plant in North York, Ontario from 1969-1970. The office identified the project number as 68040. This project consisted of proposed expansions to the IBM plant located at 844 Don Mills Road, which was built in 1951 and formerly served as their head office. The expansion program proposed four stages of construction, broken into alphabetized lots to divide the work. The construction was to consist of work on underground utilities, the building of each lot, and changes to the roads surrounding the plant. At the same time, Parkin Architects Planners was building IBM's new headquarters on the same property (see project series AP018.S1.1965.PR03 described in this fonds). The project is recorded through reprographic copies of drawings dating from 1969-1970, which consist of construction drawings and as built drawings.
