AP075.S1.1952.PR03
Description:
This project series documents Cornelia Hahn Oberlander's project for the garden of Mr. & Mrs. W. A. Rahill's private residence in Feasterville, Pennsylvania. The residence is located in Bryn Gweled Homesteads, a small cooperative community in Upper Southampton Township. Oberlander worked on this project from 1952-1953. The garden design consists of a meadow area and a play area on the front lawn of the house. The play area, surrounded by trees and strubs, includes a badminton field and a vegetable patch. This project series only contains a presentation drawing for the landscape design with a plant list.

Project
AP148.S1.1972.PR01
Description:
Project series documents Poli's research and design work on his major project about a peasant farmer named Zeno from Riparbella. This project, entitled "Zeno, una cultura autosufficiente," was presented at the 1978 Venice Biennale with Superstudio as "La Coscienza di Zeno (Zeno's consciousness)". The project also appears to have some overlap with another research project in which Poli and other members of Superstudio were involved: Culture materiale extraurbane. This involved research and the development of a course in the architecture programme at the University of Florence on research into traditional tools and other aspects of rural material culture. The research work on rural culture was published in the magazine Modo (no.7) in March 1978. The Zeno project reflects a major project in Poli's output, with work beginning on it in 1972 and into 1980. There are numerous narratives at work in this project. There is the narrative of Zeno's relationship to the small house built by his grandfather and in which he was born, and has always lived. Alongside this, is Poli's interest in Zeno's relationship to his tools, his clothes, all the material elements of his life in the only house he has ever known. The fictional narrative that Poli weaves into this project involves an imagined encounter between Zeno and astronaut Buzz Aldrin. Poli's fascination with Zeno's material culture extends into a comparison of these two men and their physical interactions with their worlds: both self-sufficient capsules of a kind. Material in this project includes a large number of drawings and collages depicting different domestic and working spaces and tools in Zeno's life. A number of these drawings feature artefacts, such as cloth pillowcases, metal pieces, and a rope. In addition, the project series includes a number of physical artefacts, such as tools and even Zeno's door. A notable element in this series is an artist book by Poli which features a catalogue or register of elements in Zeno's life, detailing everything about his spaces, his working days, and even the food he eats.

Description:
The papers in this collection are related to the participation of Barry Campbell in a project to create a 1:50 scale model for the Maison d'Artiste, an unbuilt project designed by architects Theo van Doesburg and Cor van Eesteren in 1923. The model, sponsored by lawyer Piet Sanders and Barry Campbell, was made by Frans Postma and was exhibited at the Stedelijk Museum De Lakenhal (2009-2010) and the Tate Modern (2010) as part of the exhibition "Van Doesburg and the International Avant Garde: Constructing a New World". In 2013, Barry Campbell, Frans Postma and Victor Veldhuijzen van Zanten donated the 1:50 model to Het Nieuwe Instituut/The New Institute in Rotterdam, the Netherlands (Piet Sanders, who died in September, 2012, was also named as a donor). A 1:75 scale model was made for each of the donors. Textual records in the collection include correspondence, a copy of the donor agreement, and a text by Bertus Mulder. Drawings include printouts of plans, elevations, sections, and perspectives. There are also photographs of drawings. Digital files consist of a panorama by Postma & Partner. The collection includes a printout of a photograph of Barry Campbell with the 1:50 model.
