Description:
This project series documents alterations to Tudhope Studios located at 284 King Street East in Toronto from 1987-1988. The office identified the project number as 18733. This project, headed by Marianne McKenna, consisted of alterations to the interiors and exterior of a two-storey building, originally constructed in 1947. The building, owned by design firm Tudhope Associates Inc., had approximately 12,758 square feet of space, 19 of which were added on the second floor during the alterations. The building's lower floor was used as a wholesale area, the first floor as offices, and the third floor as design studios and workshops. The interiors used a mix of carpeting, vinyl tiles, epoxy terrazzo and unfinished concrete for the floors. The interior walls were largely painted gypsum board while the exterior facade was masonry and stucco. The project also included the design and construction of furnishings inside the offices, such as signs, lighting fixtures, desks and the boardroom table. The project is recorded through drawings and a photograph of the finished exterior dating from 1987-1988. The drawings are mostly originals and include sketches, plans, elevations, sections, details, perspectives, axonometric and furnishing drawings for design and construction. The detail drawings are for the site, exterior, schedules, interiors, stairs and millwork.

Project
AP206.S1.2000.PR01
Description:
This project series documents buildings for the Guru Jambheshwar University of Science and Technology in Hisar, India around 2000. The project consisted of the design of many new campus buildings, including the Administrative Block, offices, Health Centre, student and employee hostels, professors' houses and VIP houses, the Teaching Block, cafeteria, library, and University Works buildings. The University, previously known as Punjab Agricultural University, was established in 1995 by the Haryana state government and had a campus that sprawled over 372 acres. By 2007, around 200 acres had been developed with buildings and landscaping. Prakash had previously worked on projects for this campus, formerly known as the Punjab Agricultural University, in the 1960s. This project series contains the records for three buildings: the library, the Health Centre, and the Sports Hall. The library was notable for it's round shape, large entrance arch and domed skylight ceiling. The materials also emphasize the development of a large mural in the library depicting the astrological signs. The Health Centre was a diamond shaped building with an outdoor courtyard at its centre. The Sports Hall was a rectangular building with a trussed roof consisting primarily of an open, multipurpose space. This project is recorded through drawings, photographs of the finished buildings, and textual records dating from 2000-2007. The drawings are largely originals and include plans, sections, elevations, perspectives and details. The textual records consist of correspondence and a brochure on the campus construction program.

Human Wall (2012)
AP207.S1.2012.PR07
Description:
The project series documents "Human Wall", an installation by Pettena presented at the Galleria Federico Luger in Milan, in 2012. The installation consists of a large rectangular surface handmade with clay and covered in imprints of hands and fingers. "A wall that is described as "human," certainly not just because it is made by man, but rather because the latter's intervention find expression in the choice of a natural material and in the sign that he leaves on its surface with his fingers." [1] Other editions of this installation were also presented at the Utah Museum of Contemporary Art in Salt Lake City, in 2012, and the exhibition "Architetture Naturali/Gianni Pettena" at the Kunst Meran/Merano Arte in Meran, in 2017. The project series contains design studies for the texturing of the wall, photographs of the installation, a video of the montage of the installation in Milan in 2011.
