Description:
This project series documents a feasibility study for a hotel and condominium development in Burlington, Ontario in 1976. The office identified the project number as 7601. The project consisted of a study to determine the feasibility of building a hotel and condominium on the historic Brant Inn site, a famous hotel which had closed about a decade previously. The proposed development was approximately 30 storeys with 350 condos, 250 hotel rooms, a convention facility and parking garage. It is unclear from the project materials whether the project was ever built. A project list, created by the office, which accompanied the donation of this fonds referred to this project as Hotel and Condominium Feasibility Study for David S. Owen of Warrick Consultants Limited. The project is recorded through a conference report and presentation boards dating from 1976. The presentation boards show site plans and schemes, while one shows a drawing of the New Brant Inn, prepared by architect Visvalois V. Upenicks.

Description:
This project series documents a site study for the new National Gallery of Canada in Ottawa, Ontario in 1978. The office identified the project number as 7809. In 1977, Parkin Architects Planners won a limited architectural competition for their design of the new National Gallery of Canada. The selected site for the competition, next to the Ottawa River, was controversial due to its uneven ground and lack of access to main streets in Ottawa. This project consisted of an extended site study for the construction of that building following the announcement of the competition winner if the original site was to be used. This was a brief urban design study to consider appropriate massing, exterior spaces, access, and vistas to and from the proposed building. It also included studying the best use of land next to the new gallery. The project is recorded through drawings and textual records dating from 1976-1978. The textual records include the predesign programme and schemes, correspondence, notes, meeting reports and research.

Description:
This project series documents the design for the Instituto de Biofísica in Hombroich, Germany. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 69/90. The office assigned the dates 1995-1996 to this project. The project was commissioned by the Insel Hombroich Foundation. Construction started in 1995, but was delayed until 2006. The project site was located on an old military camp and was used by the Foundation as part of a program for architects to build different types of building. The program for the Institute of Biophysics included office spaces, conference rooms, a meditation center, a music center and five guest apartments. Siza's design was kept and used later with a different interior layout for a new Pavilion for the Insel Hombroich Foundation (see project series AP178.S1.2001.PR02 in this fonds). The project was a collaboration with Rudolf Finsterwalder. Documenting this project are studies and working drawings. Textual materials include project documentation, correspondence and a development plan.

The building is divided into three independent buildings: Block 6, Block 7, and Block 8. Block 6 is made up of commercial space on the ground floor and residential units on the other six floors. Block 8 is the biggest unit of the project, with a double tower of 16 storeys. Block 7 is a four-storey building. The project was realized. Documenting this project are sketches and plans. Textual material includes correspondence and technical details. Photographic material documents the project site, construction work, and built project.

Description:
File documents Inter-Action Centre, a completed project for a community centre commissioned by Ed Berman and the Inter-Action Trust, for a disused site at Talacre Public Open Space in Kentish Town, Camden, London. The construction was divided into two phases. Foundations, steel frame and trusses were constructed first and could be used for open-air community events while funds were being raised for the second phase. Phase II included cladding, fittings, finishes, services prefabricated units, and log cabins. The building was intended as a flexible short life-span building in which the interior spaces would be independent of the roof and exterior walls. Functional areas suggested by Cedric Price include: assembly halls, classrooms, rehearsal rooms, studios, areas for performance, media resources, lounging and dining, and a gym and a nursery. Cedric Price had been engaged by the concepts of flexible architecture, indeterminacy, impermanence, and the fusion of information technology, entertainment, and educational activities in earlier unrealized projects such as Fun Palace (AP144.S2.D46) and Oxford Corner House (AP144.S2.D59). Existing conditions drawings include photographs of the site; reprographic copies of electrical and drainage systems; ordinance surveys of Kentish Town; and landscape and playground layout. Conceptual drawings include sketches of overall massing; diagrammatic plans; drawings and diagrams of site conditions; notes for the structural framework; rendered interior elevations; plans showing impact of site context on building design; diagrammatic sketches of relationship between functional requirements and structural form. Schematic drawings include diagrammatic plans; sections of structural system and exterior wall; cladding details; and axonometric views of supports. Design development drawings and working drawings include plans, elevations, sections, details and axonometric views. Presentation drawings include watercolours and other renderings; reprographic copies, possibly for publication; and perspectives drawings. Some material from this file was published in "Inter-action Centre." 'RIBA Journal'. (November 1977), 458-465; "Intervista A Cedric Price: London Interaction Centre." 'Domus'.

(London: Architectural Press, 1980), 107-109; 130 and 'Cedric Price-Works II' (London: Architectural Press, 1984), 54, 62-63. Material in this file was produced between 1964 and 1992, but predominantly between 1970 and 1981. File contains technical drawings that are attributed to the following consultants, contractors, and manufacturers: Coseley Buildings Ltd; H.G. Deacon Ltd; Kayanson Engineers; H.J. Knights & Co.
