Synopsis:
The Ulrich Königs Chemnitz Stadium project records, 1995-1996, document the competition entry and design for an innovative stadium in Chemnitz, Germany. The project was a collaboration between Peter Kulka, Ulrich Königs, Cecil Balmond, and Arup Group, Ltd. The design was primarily driven by the theoretical and methodological processes made possible by computer-aided design, rather than aesthetics. The project records have both digital and physical components, which chiefly include renderings, wireframe drawings, digital 3D models, photographs, slides, video, and a booklet.

CI005.S1.1951.PR2
Description:
Oud was one of a number of architects invited to enter the competition for the new offices of the Province of South Holland, a complex due to replace the bombed headquarters on Korte Voorhout. The design for the new site – located on the grounds of a former zoo – was required to conform to the reconstruction plan of the architect-town planner, W.M. Dudok. Oud designed a four-storey building that conformed to building requirement and located the buildings at the southwest corner of the site to accommodate the existing zoo. The governor's residence was also designed, and another two office wings were placed at right angles to the main concentration of buildings. Ultimately, to Oud's great disappointment, the jury selected a design by Peutz for its complex (Taverne et al. 2001, 453-456). Project series includes photographs of perspective drawings and of a model.

AP178.S1.1961.PR02
Description:
This project series documents the Piscina de Marés in Leça da Palmeira, Matosinhos, Portugal. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 9/60. The office assigned the date 1961. Piscina de Marés was built between 1961 and 1966. The project included two salt water pools, one for adults and another for children, and changing rooms. A restaurant was later added in 1965. The pools were embedded in rock formations situated on the northern coastline of the Atlantic Ocean in Matosinhos. Siza used concrete to build the pools and walls while preserving some of the rock formation. There was also restoration work done for both the pools and the restaurant in the mid 1990s. The project series includes sketches, elevations, plans, and details, as well as correspondence and project documentation. Photographic materials document the project site, the built project, the model, and drawings. Also included are panoramas of the built project and aerial views of the project site. Note that photographic materials related to the 1995 renovation are also found among these materials, however the rest of the materials related to the renovations are in subseries Recuperação da Piscina de Marés (AP178.S1.1995.PR01).
