Description:
Project records document the design process for OCEAN North’s competition entry for the Jyväskylä Music and Arts Centre in 1997. The project was titled Terra Cultura by OCEAN North. The competition was to create a multi-usage space that would include a venue for the symphonic orchestra, a music school, exhibition spaces and the possibility to host a variety of small cultural events in the Finnish city of Jyväskylä. The proposed site is in the center of the town, across the street from the Jyväskylä city church and its park, and nearby buildings designed by Alvar Aalto. OCEAN North’s concept presents a topological surface as an extension of the surrounding urban scape with two masses that would host the formal functions of the building (concert hall, music school, exhibition halls). The two volumes, or raised blocks, are divided along a diagonal elevated space, which is the extension of the ground’s topological surface filled and dubbed “Liquid Flow Space” by the design team. In their interview with Greg Lynn, Johan Bettum and Kivi Sotamaa mentioned that the idea for Jyväskylä was that it was a cloud. To reach this goal, the team used CAD software to trace streams of particles as a modelling approach. The masses of linear elements that were generated were further deconstructed and turned into “peels” and rearranged to create the masses of the building. Physical models were also used to test and further what had emerged from the digital design process, with results being fed back into the digital drawings. During the process, Bettum also brought in the idea of the internalisation of the outside, taking inspiration from the Centre Georges Pompidou. Digital records document the creative process with raster and vector images, CAD drawings and models, and few digital textual records describing the project and the program charts. Drawings and models show site and building plans, perspectives and sections; particles streaming and resulting linear masses; peels and sections identified per color; and renderings of aerials, perspectives and elevation views. OCEAN North seems to have mostly used Microstation for modelling, although there are a few files created with form*Z and 3D Studio. Some of the raster images might have been created with these software as well, showing a given stage of the design process and including renderings. There are also screen captures showing the top, front, left and perspective views of 3D models. Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator were also used to create and modify drawings and diagrams. Program charts were created in Microsoft Excel. Sources: Softspace: from a representation of form to a simulation of space, Edited by Sean Lally and Jessica Young. London, New York: Routledge, 2007.

File contains conceptual drawings, design development drawings, working drawings, competition drawings, presentation drawings, record drawings, reference drawings, publication drawings, photographic material, reference drawings, CD-Rs, textual records, and a model. Textual records include conceptual drawings, some by Eisenman (DR1994:0149:001-1138). Design development drawings and final working drawings are organized chronologically: 1983 (DR1994:0149:1139-1140), 1984 (DR1994:00149:1141-1294), 1985 (DR1994:00149:1295-1542), 1986 (DR1994:0149:1543-1577), 1988 (DR1994:0149:1578-1582), and 1989 (DR1994:0149:1583-1642).

This series documents eight projects that Eva Hollo Vecsei worked on while at the firm Affleck, Desbarats, Dimakopoulos, Lebensold & Sise Architect (Arcop). Vecsei worked for the firm from 1959 to 1971 and was made an associate in 1964. She was the designer in charge of several Massey Award winning projects such as: Saint Gerard Magella Church, Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Québec (1960-1963); Place Bonaventure, Montréal, Québec (circa 1963-1969); Student Union building, McGill University, Montréal, Québec (1965); and the Life science building, Dalhousie University, Halifax, Nova Scotia (1971). This series includes documents related to the following projects: Tifereth Jerusalem Synagogue, Côte-Saint-Luc, Québec (circa 1959-1971); Saint Gerard Magella Church, Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Québec (1960-1963); Centre civique Chomedey, Chomedey [now Laval], Québec (1962-1965); Place des Arts, Montréal, Québec (1963); Place Bonaventure, Montréal, Québec (circa 1963-1969); Student Union building, McGill University, Montréal, Québec (1965); and the Life science building, Dalhousie University, Halifax, Nova Scotia (1971). Collection material in this series was produced between 1959 and 2017. Documenting the series are photographs, presentation drawings, slides, publications, clippings, correspondence, and digital material (mainly photographs and versions of a filmed interview). Records are predominantly related to Place Bonaventure, a large multi-functional complex comprised of exhibition and convention halls, an international trade centre, shopping concourses, offices, and a 400-room hotel with rooftop gardens. Mostly constructed of concrete, the building is connected to an underground pedestrian network and the Place Bonaventure metro station.
