"What nature offers to an often unwitting observation, or to an appreciation of a solely aesthetic type, is here picked out, considered and classified as possible construction material." [1] The project series contains a photo montage of samples of each of the construction materials and photographs of various types of materials for selection.

Description:
File documents a consultancy project related to the Channel Tunnel Rail Link (CTRL) running from London to Folkestone, England. Price was commissioned to work in conjunction with engineering and environmental teams to provide input to the aesthetic design of major structures located along the CTRL route. A significant part of the work done on the project relates to a proposal to use a bridge rather than a tunnel on the section of the link crossing the Thames. The bridge would have been built between Gravesend, Kent and Tilbury, Thurrock. Material in this file was produced between 1986 and 1997, but predominantly in 1992. File contains conceptual drawings and textual records.

CI005.S1.1919.PR1
Description:
Oud was commissioned to design a distillery factory and warehouse just outside of Purmerend. Oud's original drawings consist of a rectangular hall and a distillery placed in a symmetrical layout. Oud later expanded his design in 1919 and modified it according to the client's wishes. Although the plans were never realized for the distillery factory in Purmerend, Oud's factory design and photographs of a model were exhibited as an example of the De Stijl aesthetic in the Paris Rosenberg gallery (Taverne et al. 2001,150-156). The project series includes design drawings as well as photographs of plans for the factory and warehouse. The series also includes a photograph of a model.

Description:
Emilie Knappert commissioned De Vonk Holiday Hostel as a home for working class girls – a project undertaken with the support of the charitable cooperation of the Vereeniging Buitenbedrijf foundation. Oud was recommended for the design by architect, H.P. Berlage, who was unable to undertake the commission. Oud worked with existing designs to systematize and streamline the existing plans and to create a highly symmetrical building. Contemporaries viewed the building as exemplifying the aesthetic of monumentality. The design was conceived of, collaboratively, with artists Van Doesburg and Harm Kamerlingh Onnes (Taverne et al. 2001, 139-143). The project series includes photographs of the window designed by Onnes and of the entrance with the tiled floor, designed by Van Doesburg.

The photographs series consists of a landscape photographs showing geological formations similar to the one seen from the city of Bolzano, Pettena's birthplace. This project is "reflections on architecture inspired by the mountains of his birthplace, symbol of a presence that conceptually, and often unconsciously, accompanies us in our aesthetic choices. Choices that are translated in architecture through the awareness of the transformation of spaces through time and of the effects of different lights and different perceptions."

Description:
File documents an unexecuted project for a detached private residence located at Beech Way in Selsdon, Surrey, (now Croydon, part of Greater London), England, for Jean Newlove (Mrs. Jean McColl). The local planning authority refused the project citing aesthetic considerations. The house was to be constructed as a "series of interleaved reinforced concrete trays" supported by columns ("Cedric Price Supplement No. 2", 'Architectural Design', vol. 41, (January 1971), 36). File contains conceptual and design development sketches that explore exterior elevations, stair and glazing details; axonometric drawings and sections that show relationship between floor levels and functions; and framing plans showing the preliminary structural layout. Material in this file was produced between 1962 and 1964. File contains conceptual drawings, design development drawings, presentation drawings, photographic materials, and textual records.

CI005.S1.1925.PR1
Description:
The Rotterdam building inspectorate, Bouwpolite & Woningdienst, rejected the original plans for the design of the Café de Unie by a private developer, and instead commissioned Oud, as municipal architect, to design the building on Calandplein. This design marked a departure for Oud from public and private buildings to the design of a commercial building. Oud's design incorporated advertisement from its conception as he designed a facade of boards, cement, and glass with an illuminated sign – this was in keeping with the contemporary aesthetic of De Stijl, which explored creative uses of advertisement. Oud designed the signs to be turned inward, to draw attention away from the surrounding buildings, and incorporated bright colours (Taverne et al. 2001, 342). Project series includes drawings of plans as well as photographs of exterior views and of the principal facade of the Café de Unie.
