Description:
File documents a consultancy project related to the Channel Tunnel Rail Link (CTRL) running from London to Folkestone, England. Price was commissioned to work in conjunction with engineering and environmental teams to provide input to the aesthetic design of major structures located along the CTRL route. A significant part of the work done on the project relates to a proposal to use a bridge rather than a tunnel on the section of the link crossing the Thames. The bridge would have been built between Gravesend, Kent and Tilbury, Thurrock. Material in this file was produced between 1986 and 1997, but predominantly in 1992. File contains conceptual drawings and textual records.

File documents the project Hale Croft Housing Development, Cheshire, England. File includes two site plans, possibly of existing conditions, one of the proposed development site and surrounding area, the other of the development site located off Hale Road in more detail. It is unclear how a third drawing entitled "installation of televiser in self-serve launderette", relates to the other drawings. The scope of the project cannot be determined from the content of the file. Material in this file was produced in 1962. The following name and address appear on one drawing: Publicity & Allied Interests, 52 Gloucester Place, W.1, Welbeck 3521 &2 File contains drawings.

Description:
This project series documents the infrastructure for the reorganization of the Nueva Montaña Quijano (N.M.Q.) in Santander, Spain. The office identified this project as number 45. As described by the architect, the project is “to pursue an idea for a complete city that is independent of and complementary to the existing one, while solving the matter of Santander's connection to the rest of the region and respecting building limits set by laws in force, quantity-wise, as well as height restrictions imposed by airport authorities." (ARCH270753) Documenting the project are conceptual, design development, presentation and working drawings, project descriptions and other textual documentation, models and cartographic materials.

The project series documents the commission for the municipal hall and main square of the city of Colmenarejo. One of the objectives of the project was to “strengthen civic life” (ARCH270975). The main square, Plaza de la Constitución, was organized around elements to be preserved and the town hall was seen as an extension of the square. The project was built. The firm identified this project as number 112. The Abalos & Herreros worked with Ángel Jaramillo, David Franco, Carolina González and Juan Gómez. Documenting the project are conceptual, design development and working drawings, project descriptions, correspondence, notes, budgets, estimates, certifications, invoices, reports, contracts, and reference, graphic, photographic and digital materials.
