Architectural projects
Reference number:
AP166.S1
Description:
Series 1, Architectural Projects (1990-2012, predominant 1990-1996) contains files for seven projects developed by Shoei Yoh and the firm Shoei Yoh + Architects. Six of these projects were developed during the period 1990-1996 in Japan. The Galaxy Toyama Gymnasium in Imizu, Toyama Prefecture, Japan, is the most voluminous project file and is related to two other projects in the series—the Odawara Municipal Sports Complex and the Prospecta Toyama ’92 Observatory Tower. The Odawara Municipal Sports Complex and the Galaxy Toyama Gymnasium were developed at approximately the same time, and, for both projects, digital technology was used to calculate the dimensions of elements in a space frame roof structure. The Galaxy Toyama Gymnasium and the Prospecta Toyama ’92 Observatory Tower were both designed by Shoei Yoh for the 1st Japan Expo Toyama ’92 (JET ‘92) and each of the two project files contains some material related to the other. The Galaxy Toyama Gymnasium project contains CAD files related to the roof design, printouts from computer simulations of the roof, design drawings, presentation material, architectural and structural working drawings, models and textual records. The project file for the Odawara Municipal Sports Complex contains some design drawings--including printouts from computer simulations of the roof, proposal documents and some photographs of the site. The other built projects—the Prospecta Toyama ’92 Observatory Tower, the Glass Station, the Naiju Community Center and Nursery School, and the Uchino Community Center for Seniors and Children—are documented through drawings, models, and photographic material. The final project file in the series--a project for a tower in Taichung, Taiwan—is composed of a few presentation documents. Drawings in the series include hand drawings and printouts or photocopies of images created using digital design software. Apart from the CAD files related to the roof design for the Galaxy Toyama Gymnasium, digital material in the series is composed of still images in .jpg format related to the projects for the Odawara Municipal Sports Complex and the Galaxy Toyama Gymnasium. Some of the documents in .jpg format are duplicates of paper documents in the series.

AP164.S1.1999.D6
Description:
The project series documents the commission, design, and construction of the Gordillo studio, neighbouring the client’s house (AP164.S1.1993.D2) on Castilla de Ponferrada Street, in Villanueva de la Cañada, Community of Madrid, Spain. The firm identified this project as number 119. “The Gordillo Studio is a prismatic, serrated volume that occupies the plot’s only available strip of land and minimizes its presence through the use of two materials, translucent polycarbonate and xerophilous plantings, which seek the best adaptation to the site, the program and the client. Using this system, a semi-buried interior is constructed in which the light has been modeled as a solid, expansive material, the aim being to satisfy not only the specific demands of the work space but also the creation of an agreeable atmosphere, as austere as it is sensual.” (ARCH270975) Abalos & Herreros worked with Ángel Jaramillo Sanchez, María Auxiliadora Gálvez, Renata Sentkiewicz, Juan Gómez, Fernando Valero and José Torras. In 2002, the project won the COAM 2000 prize. Documenting this project are conceptual, design development and working drawings, photographic and reference materials, correspondence, notes, budgets, reports, studies, forms, project descriptions, invoices, certifications and trade catalogues.
