AP144.S2.D65
Description:
File documents several commissions undertaken for the British Airports Authority for the re-development of the north side of Heathrow Airport, in Hillingdon, Greater London, England, United Kingdom, with respect to the revision of BAA's Master Development Plan. Cedric Price was commissioned to present proposals for the redevelopment of the site, and for an office block, a computer center, and a boiler house. Existing conditions materials for the site include plans of the airport, plans showing height limitations, flight, and landing paths, a regional survey, aerial photographs, and a photographic panorama of the site. Existing conditions materials for the office block include site plans. Diagrammatic sketches show the relationship between various "activity" zones. Design development drawings and reprographic copies for the site include alternate site plans, site plans charting sound levels, and project progress charts. Plans show traffic flow and growth patterns, area usage, height restrictions, and potential long-term uses for the site. Design development drawings for the office block include a preliminary structural scheme, alternate office layouts, axonometric drawings, plans, sections and diagrams for the lift, graphs showing parking ratios, a diagrammatic section and grid for a parking layout, and plans, sections and diagrams for the parking structure and building entrances. Axonometric drawings show volumetric comparisons for areas designated for computers and their use. Material for the boiler house consists of two existing conditions plans, a location diagram, and an axonometric drawing. Cedric Price produced two reports for the British Airport Authority. Material from this file was published in Price, Cedric. 'Cedric Price-Works II' (London: Architectural Press, 1984), 43. Material in this file was produced between 1963 and 1970. Douglas Smith, of Baker Wilkins & Smith, is Cedric Price's quantity surveyor on this project; Margaret Maxwell is the landscape consultant hired by BAA; and Zisman, Bowyer & Partners is the firm of consulting engineers hired by BAA. File contains conceptual drawings, design development drwings, reference drawings, presentation drawings, photographic materials, and textual records.

Description:
File documents Cedric Price's competition entry for the design of one of the pedestrian plazas at the Olympic Village for the 1972 Olympics held in Munich, Germany. The limited competition was originally awarded to Cedric Price, but later withdrawn, and the project was never executed. The proposal called for market stalls/exhibition stands, seating, groups of spherical structures that would emit light, sound, warm or cool air, and a large central sphere that would provide multi-media projections and information. Some material from this file was submitted for publication in 'L'Architecture d'aujourd'hui' (1972) and 'Bauen + Wohnen' (1972). Material in this file was produced between 1971 and 1972. File contains conceptual drawings, photographic materials, presentation drawings, reference drawings, and textual records.
