AP170.S2
Description:
Series 2, Software and related documentation, 1990 – 2014, contains unique iterations of the ACDC, Aegis, and HypoSurface software, and contains roughly 45,000 digital files. The bulk of the files date from approximately 2000 – 2001. This series chiefly consists of the materials received from Xavier Robitaille. This includes a virtual machine and DOS emulator for Aegis HypoSurface, as well as ACDC and Aegis Simulator software for Microsoft DOS and Win32 for Hyposurface installations. There is also a small amount of email correspondence in MBOX format between Robitaille, Mark Goulthorpe, and other project members documenting their work on the project. Additionally, there are two computer backups in this series. One is for Goulthorpe’s computer. The files from the disk image were carved out and only unique files were kept. It includes his files for the Aegis HypoSurface project and reflects his working environment. The second backup is a disk image of Paul Steenhuisen’s Mac G5 computer. The Mac G5 computer is a clone of an earlier G4, and is included with the archive to allow demonstration of the interactive logic that was developed through CeBIT, the International Manufacturers Technology Show (IMTS), and the Biotechnology Industry Organization (BIO) conference at the Boston Convention Centre, including an interactive soundscape piece executed by artist Paul Steenhuisen. The G5 has a copy of FIELD, the user interface software developed for HypoSurface 2 and HypoSurface 3. The files from this computer were processed and made available in Series 3: Projects and events, and Series 4: Promotional materials. The disk image of the internal hard drive was retained in case future emulation is necessary. Because much of this series is software, roughly 42,000 files are or relate to executable programs. Formats for these materials are largely Java source code and Java object code, but also include HTML, plain text files, Aegis pattern files, and some unidentified formats. The remaining files in this series are chiefly vector and raster images referenced in the software. Notably, the Steenhuisen disk image is approximately 250 GB, and represents the largest part of this series. This series overlaps significantly with Series 3: Projects and events. This series contains software generally, while Series 3 contains any software related to a specific project or event.

Project
AP178.S1.1980.PR03
Description:
The project series documents the 1980 design entry for Block 11-12 (Kottbusser Damm). While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 3/80. The office assigned the date 1980 for this project. This project was submitted to the International Architectural Exhibition Berlin competition (International Bauaustellung, IBA, circa 1979-1987), an urban renewal strategy for West Berlin, Germany. Siza had previously submitted three other projects to this competition: the Görtlitzer Bad swimming pool, Block 70 and 89 (Fränkelufer residential complex), and Block 121 (Bonjour Tristesse), which was his first built international project. He would later submit design proposals for two other projects: Monument to Gestapo victims Prinz-Albrecht-Palais and the Kulturforum. The design proposal for Block 11-12 was for a residential building on Kottbusserstrasse in Kreuzberg. Documenting the design proposal are drawings, photographs, negatives, slides, and textual documentation. Among the drawings are sketches, studies, elevations, floor plans, and site plans. Photographs and negatives depict the project site and surrounding area; additionally there are slides of drawings and the model. Also included is a work contract from the IBA signed by Siza and IBA official Hardt-Waltherr Hämer, as well as several notes and calculations. Note that textual documentation in this project series includes materials on Block 70 and 89, see AP178.S1.1980.PR03.008. Sketches in this project series may also include sketches related to other Berlin projects, such as Block 70 and 89.

Description:
This project subseries documents the Parque de Pedras Salgadas, Hotel Avelames, Spa e Casa de Chá in Pedras Salgadas, Portugal. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 50/00. The office assigned the date 2002 to this project. This project consisted of extensive work to the Hotel Avelames, the thermal spa and the Casa de Chà at the Pedras Salgadas Spa and Nature Park. The building program proposed the demolition of the Hotel Avelames due to the deficiency of previous alterations and enlargements to the historic building. A new four-storey hotel was proposed in its place. The thermal spa building was reimagined and modernized with an indoor pool, treatment and relaxation rooms and a sauna. The historic Casa de Chà building was also reimagined and became the Casa de Chà restaurant. Additional work was proposed for other buildings on the property, including the Casas das Freiras, to create tourist villas, but this work was not realized. The project subseries is recorded through drawings, photographic materials, study models and textual records dating from 2002-2010. The drawings are mostly reprographic copies, some with annotations and sketches, of plans, elevations, sections, details, demolition drawings, and structural, mechanical and electrical drawings. The photographic materials primarily consist of printed digital photos that show the site, historic hotel and construction work. The textual records include site reports, building programs, permit documentation, specifications, correspondence, meeting minutes, supplier records, and documentation on structural, mechanical and electrical systems.

Description:
Manuscript DR1974:0002:036:006:001-006 documents a project in which the Ministère des Affaires Étrangères would apparently retain the property of its archives and the Hôtel d'Etchegoyan. The project proposes the creation of a new street to provide access to the rear of the opera house and to isolate it from the Ministère des Affaires Étrangères. The principal façade of the opera house was to be on the property of the Hôtel du Timbre facing rue de la Paix. The manuscript includes proposed construction costs and rental income for the opera house, including its boutiques and café, and the adjacent shopping arcades, apartments, and houses.

Description:
The project series documents the 1983 design entry for the Kulturforum. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 21/80. The office assigned the date 1983 for this project. This project was a competition entry for the International Architectural Exhibition Berlin competition (International Bauaustellung, IBA, circa 1979-1987), an urban renewal strategy for West Berlin, Germany. Siza also submitted five other entries to the IBA: Görtlitzer Bad swimming pool; Block 70 and 89 (Fränkelufer residential complex); Bonjour Tristesse (Block 121); Block 11-12; and Monument to Gestapo victims. The Kulturforum was a complex of cultural buildings. The site underwent many changes during Nazi Germany and post-war with the construction of the National Library of Staatsbibliothek, designed by Hans Scharoun. Two examples of features that the IBA asked participants to include in their design proposals were to exclude vehicle traffic between the library and national gallery, and to reinterpret the Forum space. Documenting this project are several sketches and studies. There are also plans, elevations, and axonometric drawings of site plans. Siza’s office has indicated on some of the studies that they were possibly not created by Siza. Where this is the case it has been noted with the physical material. Photographs and negatives document the competition site and model, and there are transparencies and slides of drawings. Also included is textual documentation on the competition site and a few letters from members of the Berlin Senate, two of which are from Brigitte Cassirer (later Brigitte Fleck).

This project series documents the Casa de Chá, Restaurante da Boa Nova in Leça de Palmeira, Portugal. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 9/50. In the past the office identified the project as number 99. The office assigned the dates 1958-1963 for this project. The coastal site for this project was selected by Portuguese architect Fernando Távora. The project was built after the proposal won an architecture competition held by the municipality of Matosinhos in 1958. Távora initiated the project in collaboration with Francisco Figueiredo, and later handed the project over to Siza. In an interview with Eduardo Souto Moura, Moura recounts that Távora gave the project to Siza and five other aids before leaving on vacation (Juan Rodrigues, Carlos Seoane, et al, “Siza by Siza”). In the 1970s, Siza designed the furniture for this project and also worked on the 1990s restoration and renovation work. The project series consists of sketches, studies, plans, elevations, and details for the Casa de Chá, Restaurante da Boa Nova as well as sketches of the furniture designed by Siza. Photographs, negatives, and slides document the exterior and interior of the built project, as well as the project site. There are also postcards of the built project and photographs taken by photographers Rui Morais de Sousa, Juan Rodriguez, Alvão (Azevedo & Fernandes), Stitchting Wonen, and Charters. Textual documentation includes correspondence from the Câmara Municipal de Matosinhos, including correspondence addressed to Távora, as well as correspondence from Távora and Siza.

This project series documents the Arranjo Urbanístico para a Av. D. Afonso Henriques, in Porto, Portugal. The avenue is also known as Avenida da Ponte. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 32/60. The office assigned the date 1968 for this project. The project consisted of an urban plan for this historic part of the city. It was done in relation to the Edifício de Escritórios na Av. D. Afonso Henriques (see project series AP178.S1.1968.PR02 described in this fonds). In the 1940s, demolition created a rupture with the remaining buildings, including the Porto Cathedral. Since the 1950s, there have been several studies and proposals to rearrange this part of the city. Siza’s plan was the first to be accepted by the city council in 1968. The project consisted of a new layout for the Avenue D. Afonso Henriques, the connection between the Luis I Bridge to the D. Pedro Square and the São Bento Railway Station. The intention of the project was also to reduce traffic. The project was not realized. Siza also proposed a new design in 2001 for the site across the avenue from this one, known as Avenida da Ponte II. This included a museum, library, stores, parking, and houses. This project related to the building Casa Dos 24 Fernando Távora. The scheme was not realized. Documenting the Arranjo Urbanistico are studies and site plans. For correspondence, project documentation and drawings related to this project see project series Edifício de Escritórios na Av. D. Afonso Henriques, Avenida da Ponte AP178.S1.1968.PR02.

They used the transparencies to present their projects and proposals. The transparencies of their work are numbered and titled, ex. Old City 193. The van Ginkels would produce their own maps prior to starting a project. Also included are about 60 slides of facades of buildings in Old Montreal. These were photos the van Ginkels took and were likely taken in the late 1950s. They likely used these as reference material.
