Description:
File documents a project in which Cedric Price was invited to submit a design for a single house to an exhibition entitled "Architecture II: Houses for Sale" organized by the Leo Castelli Gallery, New York City, New York, United States. The four components of Price's submission entitled "Platforms, Pavilions, Pylons and Plants" could be regrouped and redistributed on the one-acre site if and when required. Conceptual, design development and schematic sketches include preliminary plans, sections, and elevations for the house as well as details for the arrangement of the four components. Trees are stamped in black ink on the site plans with a generic rubber "tree" stamp. Design development drawings include preliminary drawings for layouts done in graphite, and a complete sequence of design development drawings done in ink numbered 001 to 013. Several reprographic copies of design development drawings were coloured with adhesive film and pencil and annotated in order to develop preliminary versions for the final presentation drawings. Three panels for the "Houses for Sale" exhibition consist of text describing the project concept mounted on boards, and a photomechanical print enlarged from an original sketch perspective entitled "general view-pavilions and totems". Material in this file was produced between 1979 and 1982, and in 1987, but predominantly in 1980. File contains conceptual drawings, design development drawings, presentation panels, a presentation model, photographic materials, and textual records.

Description:
This project series documents the design and construction of the Toronto Sun building in downtown Toronto from 1973-1975. The office identified the project number as 7312. This project consisted of a 97,000 square foot office building and press plant at 333 King Street East, spanning to Front, Ontario, and Berkley Streets. The design included spaces for administrative, editorial and publishing offices as well as a press hall, platemaking area, photo studio, mail room, roll storage and composing area. The printing and publishing side of the structure was designed to accomodate for further expansion, which occurred in the decade following its original construction. The total cost of the project was $3.7 million. The project is recorded through drawings, photographs, textual records, and a project painting dating from 1972-1976. The drawings consist largely of reprographic copies of floor plans, elevations, landscaping, details and site plans, but some sketches are included. There are also presentation boards of floor plans and the design and construction schedule. The photographs show printing presses and press buildings. The textual records include correspondence, conference reports, interoffice letters, consultancy records, specifications, site reports, building and zoning records, financial records, tender documents, change orders, contract data, deficiency lists and supplementary instructions. Box AP018.S1.1973.PR12.007 contains an index to the textual records, which was created by the office.

Description:
Project series documents Cornelia Hahn Oberlander's project for the new Visitor Centre of VanDusen Botanical Garden in Vancouver, British Columbia. Oberlander worked on this project from 2007 to 2011 with architectural firm Busby Perkins+Will Architects and landscape architecture firm Sharp and Diamond Landscape Architects. The project consisted in building an access to the botanical garden from Oak Street. The building includes a undulating green roof shaped as a native orchid leaf and covered in plants inspired by the Pacific Northwest Coastal grassland. The building entrance is marked by "a single petal raised above the others" [1] while another of the giant roof petal in the back "almost touched the ground, and transported water to Oberlander's rainwater garden." [2] The project series contains design developement drawings such as site plans, planting plans, landscape plans, landscape sections and a few sketches, and also sets of building drawings or older landscape drawings of the garden used as reference. The project is also documented through textual records, including correspondence with architects, consultants and clients, project proposals, documentation on botanical garden or on the VanDusen Botanical Garden, and press articles and clippings about the project. The project series comprises also digital photographs of the completed building. Source: [1] [2] Herrington, Susan.

Description:
Project series documents Cornelia Hahn Oberlander's landscape project for Northwest Territories Legislative Assembly Building, situated beside Frame Lake, in Yellowknife, Northwest Territories. Oberlander worked on this project in 1991 with architectural firms Matsuzaki Wright Architects and Pin/Matthews. The team was selected for the project after a design competition. Architects chose to have the new assembly build on the edge of the lake, on the volcanic rock of the Canadian Shield. They used the bog of the site as a transitional space between the building and the city. Oberlander concept design was to integrate the building to the landscape with the least intervention, because of the fagile ecology of the area, and preserve the natural beauty of the landscape. In this idea, the planting for the project only comprises native plants and grasses and very few alteration were made to the existing condition of the site. The project was completed in 1994. The project series contains design development drawings, including planting plans, landscape plans, grading plans, site details, site plans, working drawings, including site plans, planting plans and grading plans, and building drawings used as reference. The project is also documented through textual records, such as correspondence, specifications, concept notes by Oberlander, financial documents, meeting notes, reports, research material and site informations, and also photographs of the construction and the completed work. The project series comprises also digital files of the Legislative Assembly development plans and facility program and digital photographs of the building.

Description:
This series documents the architectural projects of Ábalos&Herreros from 1986 to 2006 and represents over 150 projects, including exhibitions. The firm worked on a wide variety of projects from commercial and residential structures to libraries and sewage treatment plants. The firm's design process was research oriented and involved conversations between Ábalos and Herreros, office collaborators, artists who partook in the projects, as well as other architects. Several projects found in this series were developed in collaboration with other architects including: José Manuel Ábalos; Salvador Pérez Arroyo; Filippo Costi; Ángel Jaramillo Esteban; Javier Fresneda; Eduardo Horta; Martín Marciano; Ángel Jaramillo Sánchez; Renata Sentkiewicz; and Héctor Vigliecca. Most projects were designed for the city of Madrid and the Community of Madrid. Projects were also developed for other sites in Spain, including the Canary Islands, as well as for sites in Portugal, Germany, the United States, and Brazil. Ábalos & Herreros often created new projects from the firm's existing work. The firm also identified their projects numerically. These identification numbers are documented at the project series level for each project. Among the materials documenting the firm's projects are conceptual, design development, presentation, and working drawings, as well as panels. There are also several CAD drawings and prints of born digital drawings. Documenting the firms conceptual process are collages and photomontages. Photographic materials included in this series depict project sites and built projects. Also included are a variety of research reference materials, correspondence, project documentation, and project submissions. Although creating models was not a common practice for the firm, there are a few project series which include models.

There are five views of mines in Germany, two in Belgium, two in the United States, and one in each of France and Wales. - The group of 86 photographs PH1987:0996 - PH1987:1081 by Bernd and Hilla Becher show 15 views of steel mill blast furnaces in the United States including: three views of the Bethlehem Steel steel mill in Johnstown, Pennsylvania (PH1987:1054 - PH1987:1056); three views of the U.S. Steel steel mill in Youngstown, Ohio (PH1987:1038, PH1987:1057, and PH1987:1059); two views of the Sheet & Tube Co. steel mill in Youngstown, Ohio (PH1987:1060 - PH1987:1061); and one view each of the Republic Steel steel mill in Youngstown, Ohio (PH1987:1047), the Central Furnaces of the U.S. Steel steel mill in Cleveland, Ohio (PH1987:1039), the U.S. Steel Duquesne Plant in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (PH1987:1040), the U.S. Steel Edgar Thompson Plant in Braddock, Pennsylvania (PH1987:1041), the Jones & Laughlin Steel Co. steel mill in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (PH1987:1062), the U.S. Steel steel mill in Gary, Indiana (PH1987:1058), and the Bethlehem Steel steel mill in Sparrows Point, Baltimore, Maryland (PH1987:1037). - The photographers indicate that the group of ten photographs PH1987:1032 - PH1987:1041 of views of blast furnace heads should be exhibited in two rows arranged from left to right and top to bottom in numerical order according to the photographers' inscriptions "K 1" through "K 10". Photograph PH1987:1032 would therefore be at the far left of the upper row, while photograph PH1987:1041 would be at the far right of the bottom row (Kicken Pauseback, 1987).
