CI005.S1.1949.PR1
Description:
Vredenburg Square – originally designed by H.P. Berlage in 1919 – had become problematic for traffic congestion; the problem was compounded by the erection of the Jaarbeurs Exhibition Complex. Utrecht city council commissioned Oud to design a square with architect C. Wegener Sleeswijk. Oud modified Sleeswijk's original expansion plan to create a design for a twelve-storey tower block that would take up less space and open up the southeast side of the square. In addition to the Jaarbeurs tower, Oud suggested placing more emphasis on the square's entrance. Oud also modified the traffic routes and created a semi-circular facade across from a secretariat. Although the city council approved Oud's plan in 1951, his design was unrealized as the council ultimately commissioned another architectural firm's design (Taverne et al. 2001, 472-473). Project series includes plans for the Vredenburg development.

DR1974:0002:033:001-032
Description:
- This album contains preliminary and design development drawings - plans, sections and elevations - as well as rough cost estimates and specifications for several domestic commissions. The principal projects are both for M. Busche: an hôtel, possibly a double residence or apartment house (DR1974:0002:033:001 - DR1974:0002:033:017), and a housing project with apartment houses, row houses, and a porter's residence (DR1974:0002:033:018 - DR1974:0002:033:026). There are three alternative designs for the hôtel: two four-storey buildings, one with a courtyard and the other with a garden, and a five-storey building with a courtyard. Drawings for an apartment house for Louis-Jacques-François Boulnois include three elevations, a partial sketch plan and two plans (DR1974:0002:033:028 - DR1974:0002:022:032). These drawings are apparently for several projects, several buildings for a single project, or variant schemes for one project. All of the designs are rendered in an austere classical manner with minimal ornament.
