Description:
The project series documents "Complimenti D'Architettura", an installation for the Biennale di Venezia at the Magazzini del Sale in 1978. The installation consists of a stone wall that showcases the different types of stone used as construction material over time, begining with uncut natural stone and ending with cut polished stone. "It is a symbolic history of architecture [...]: all the intermediate phases, from the collection of scattered pieces of rock, piled up to make a heap, to the hewn and polished stone, its surface as shiny as a mirror." [1] The installation was also presented at the exhibition "La fine del mondo" at the Centro Pecci per l'Arte Contemporanea in Prato, in 2016. The project series contains photographs of the first edition of the installation at the Biennale di Venezia, and installation sketches. It also contains two photographs of the second edition at the Centro Pecci per l'Arte Contemporanea.

Description:
This project series documents the Sifto Salt Division Mill and Warehouse of Domtar Chemicals Limited in Goderich, Ontario, Canada from 1962-1963. The office probably identified the project number as either 6237 or 6264. This project consisted of a 62,000 square foot facility on the existing industrial complex of Domtar. The building was clad in epoxy faced brick and concrete up to the third floor, while the rest of the structure was clad in ribbed cement asbestos siding up to the roof. The building included process areas, packaging areas, a warehouse, bagging room, offices, cafeteria and canteen, and shipping and recieving areas. This project won a special mention at the Massey Medal for Architecture in 1964. The project is recorded through a mounted photograph showing the finished buillding.

Ice House II (1972)
Reference number:
AP207.S1.1972.PR01
Description:
The project series documents "Ice House II" a project which consisted of freezing a small house in suburban Minneapolis, by pouring water into a wooden mold surrounding the house and letting the water freeze to create a block of ice. "If the addition of material then leads, paradoxically, to the disappearence of the 'architectural' object, this subtraction only highlights the serial repetitiveness of the dwellings in American suburbia." [1] It is unclear if this project was ever performed. The project series contains photographs of the frozen house, photographic reproductions of aerial views and plans of the neighbourhood for the selection of the house, sketches and a perspective drawing.

Description:
The project series documents "Ice House II" a project which consisted of freezing a small house in suburban Minneapolis, by pouring water into a wooden mold surrounding the house and letting the water freeze to create a block of ice. "If the addition of material then leads, paradoxically, to the disappearence of the 'architectural' object, this subtraction only highlights the serial repetitiveness of the dwellings in American suburbia." [1] It is unclear if this project was ever performed. The project series contains photographs of the frozen house, photographic reproductions of aerial views and plans of the neighbourhood for the selection of the house, sketches and a perspective drawing.

Description:
Cette série rassemble les documents produits par Jacques Rousseau dans le cadre du Prix de Rome (1988), soit: les esquisses préparatoires et les gravures blanches (sans encre) qui illustrent un projet de "Nouveau-Port" pour Montréal, et les dessins à la craie sèche sur papier intitulés "Mémoire virtuelle ...". On y retrouve également des avenues de projet qui n'ont pas été développées, "Étude du flanc est du Mont-Royal" et projet de "Boucliers de papier", et des documents issus de l'exposition intitulée Montréal vue de Rome présentée à la Maison Coloniale en mai 1990. Le dossier contient des dessins, des documents textuels, des documents photographiques et un artéfact. Description du projet par l'architecte: "Amorcé en 1985, lors de la consultation publique concernant le Vieux-Port de Montréal, "le projet du Nouveau Port" complète son cycle alors que je séjourne à Rome à titre de Prix de Rome du Conseil des Arts du Canada. Prétexte par excellence pour réfléchir sur l'espoir et la transformation de Montréal, le sujet du Nouveau Port m'est apparu comme le moyen d'informer une approche de la transformation de la ville. J'ai pensé le projet possible, nécessaire même et j'ai plongé." Jacques Rousseau, "Le projet du Nouveau Port", ARQ : Architecture-Québec, nº 67, p. 30.
