Series
AP196.S2
Description:
Series 2, Project files for full-term design, 2007-2011, documents the design phase after the firm won the project. During this phase, the firm refined the design, which included deciding on the pattern for the bird screen. The firm also produced the construction drawings and was in contact with potential subcontractors for the project. However, due to cuts in the city budget, the Ford Calumet Environmental Center was never built. The records consist largely of AutoCAD drawings and original sketches documenting the final design development phase, as well as related AutoCAD drawings for construction details. The records also include email correspondence with project subcontractors and City of Chicago’s Department of Environment and programming documents submitted to the City for different commissions and departments. The records also include marketing documents used for different publications about the project. Additionally, there is one study model for the entire building, two sectional models for façade roof and deck, and one terrazzo flooring sample.

Construction documentation
AP192.S2
Description:
Series 2: Construction documentation, 1997 – 2016, consists of over 5100 born-digital files that relate to the construction and construction documentation phases of the Austrian Hypo Alpe-Adria Center. The majority of the records date from 1999 to 2003. This series relates to construction and largely contains CAD drawings and photographs which demonstrate the progress of the project in the built environment over time. The roughly 3600 drawings in this series include floorplans, detail documentation, as-built drawings, shop drawings, elevations, and site plans. CAD formats represented include PowerCAD, PowerDraw, Microstation, and AutoCAD. There are also approximately 200 3D models and plans completed in Form*Z. These were likely used for renderings and 3D printing. This series also contains a significant number of images, including renderings and photographs of the construction site and physical model. Notably, there are a number of high resolution photographs of the Hypo Alpe-Adria exterior. There is also a small amount of related textual documentation.

AP178.S1.1991.PR01
Description:
This project series documents the Vitra International project in Weil am Rhein, Germany. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 18/90. The office assigned the dates 1991-1994 to this project. The building included a factory, offices, and loading docks. The brick was chosen as a reference to the production hall that burned down in 1981 on the project site. The curved bridge roof that connected Siza's building to Nicholas Grimshaw's building was conceived to not obstruct the view of Zaha Hadid's Fire Station. Siza also designed a 500 metre promenade that passed by the Vitra building and connected the Fire Station to the VitraHaus designed by Herzog & de Meuron. The project was realized. Documenting this project are sketches, studies, design development drawings, plans and details. Textual material includes project documentation and correspondence. Photographic materials document the project site, models, construction work and the built project. There is also a study model for this project.
