Description:
This project series documents a house for Dr. Parmanand in Kulhara, India, likely sometime in the1980s or 1990s. Two schemes were proposed for the home, both of which had two bedrooms. The project is recorded through original drawings of floor plans, possibly dating from sometime in the 1980s-1990s.

Description:
This project series documents the design and construction of the Reisman-Jenkinson residence and studio located at 92 Westwood Lane in Richmond Hill, Ontario from 1988-1991. The office identified the project number as 8813. This project consisted of a house and an attached studio with split-face concrete block exteriors for sculptor Stephen Jenkinson and writer Dolly Reisman. The house was divided into four wings, referred to in the documentation as Building A, Building B, Building C, and Building D. Building A was the studio at the front of the property, which had a distinctive marquis roof made of metal that fanned into a skylight. Building B, the main living area, was a loft-style building that included the kitchen, dining room, living room and conservatory on the ground floor and an office and storage spaces in the basement. This building was marked by large glass walls at the front of the property and a pyramid-shaped skylight above the kitchen. Building C extended towards the back of the property and was considered the sleeping wing, housing bedrooms at the ground floor and a playroom in the basement. Finally, Building D, which sat on the back corner of Building C, was the master bedroom and included a gym at the basement level. Buildings B, C, and D created a semi circle whose interior contained an exterior courtyard and gardens. Multiple schemes were investigated for this project, including different layouts of the basements and the ground floor of Building C. The project is recorded through original drawings, textual records and photographs dating from 1988-1991. The drawings document the design and construction of the home and include plans, sections, elevations, axonometric drawings and perspectives of interiors, exteriors and furnishings. Also present are structural, electrical and mechanical drawings issued for construction. Textual records are included to support the drawings. The photographs show the completed home.

Description:
- Abrasion marks at the t. indicate that the finial on the tallest turret of the great tower was erased. - One of a group of working drawings for William Burn's October 1849 project for Fonthill House, Wiltshire, a country house designed in the Jacobethan style. This group represents only one of the projects that Burn proposed for Fonthill House; the final project, executed in 1856, was much smaller (Walker, 31, illustrated in Hitchcock, vol. 2, fig. VIII 31). Drawings include plans, elevations, and sections, as well as full-scale drawings of masonry details. Approximately half of the drawings are part of a numbered series from one to twenty-two, while the other drawings, mostly masonry details, were not numbered. These latter drawings are not as carefully finished, and a few are incomplete.

Project
CI005.S1.1921.PR1
Description:
German architectural critic, Adolf Behne, requested Oud submit a design for a private house that was to be built for private clients in Berlin-Grünewald in 1921. Although Oud's designs never came to fruition, the project promoted his international reputation, with his designs circulating in lectures and publications. Behn, who maintained a correspondence with Oud, helped introduce Oud to the international scene with a positive review of his designs, including one for Villa Kallenbach. Oud's design was in stark contrast to the prevailing contemporary German aesthetic of Expressionism. Oud created a functional symmetric design for a detached, spacious country dwelling; he placed the building toward the anterior of the site and angled the front away from the street to take advantage of the sunlight and garden space (Taverne et al. 2001, 312-317). Oud made some modifications based on the client's desire to enlarge the ground floor in February, 1922. Project series includes drawings of plans and elevations.
