Description:
This project series documents the Helsinki Museum of Contemporary Art. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 28/90. The office assigned the dates 1992-1993 to this project. For the 75th anniversary of the independence of the country, the Finnish government held a competition for the design of the Museum of Contemporary Art of Helsinki. The competition was exclusive to Scandinavian architects, with the exception of four invited architects, including Àlvaro Siza. Eduardo Souto de Moura collaborated with Siza on the design. The project site was located in the center of Helsinki, near the main post office and the Parliament. Siza decided to name the building Cometa. The proposal included exhibition spaces, teaching and public facilities, an auditorium, workrooms, workshops, storerooms, film studio, and spaces for the administration and archives. The showrooms were located on the first floor and most of the lighting was intended to come from natural light. The design proposed by Siza included the use of granite for the exterior of the building. Steven Holl was selected by the jury to built the museum. Documenting this project are floor plans, sections, elevations, and site plans. Textual material includes project documentation, competition documentation, and correspondence.

Description:
Project series documents Cornelia Hahn Oberlander's landscape project for the Liu Centre for Global Studies at University of British Columbia, Vancouver. Oberlander worked on this project in 1994 with architect Arthur Erickson and architectural firm Aitken Wreglesworth Associates. The overwall concept for the project was to design an environmentally responsible building and landscape. Situated at the north edge of a mature costal forest, the main concern of the landscape design was to avoid effecting the existing woodland. Oberlander preserved all existing mature trees on the site and used only native plants and grasses. The design of the building was also though to minimize any impact on the surrounding forest, by avoiding machineries on site or pruning of existing trees. The project also included a green roof, also design by Oberlander. The project was completed in 2000. The project series includes sketches, design development drawings, including landscape plans, landscape details and planting plans, working drawings, such as planting plans and details for the green roof, and working drawings for the building used as reference. The project series also comprises a proposal, concept notes by Oberlander, correspondence with clients, architects and consultants, meetings notes, financial documents, specifications and some promotional material and press clippings on the building. The project is also documented through photographs of landscaping work.

Project series documents Cornelia Hahn Oberlander's proposal for the landscape master plan of Alberta Children's Hospital in Calgary. Oberlander worked on this project in the early 2000s. Oberlander was in charged of developping the concept for the landscape master plan and create a healing garden. Her concept included a site entry with a strong presence of the nature to reassure the visitor, the use of native plants to keep the landscape of the hospital in harmony with site natural landscape, the use of plants that encourage and support wildlife to allow sick children to appreciate nature, outdoor seating areas and pathways with lighting to be used even at nightime, and environments for play and learning for sick children and their relatives. A participatory method was also applied for the design of the master plan throughout workshops organized with the children of the hospital in which they were invited to draw what they wanted for the healing garden. The project series contains landscape plans, site plans, landscape concept plans, site concept plans and presentation drawings. The project is also documented through Oberlander's concept notes, correspondence, including correspondence with client, Oberlander's landscape proposal, landscape concept presentation documents, financial documents, research material, and photographs of the site for the hospital.

The subseries documents the show-event base “Fabricaciones / Fabrications,” held at the Museu d'Art Contemporani de Barcelona (MACBA) (February 10th to April 20th, 1998). The firm identified this project as number 110. “Fabrications was an innovative exhibition on architecture conceived and produced jointly by MACBA, MoMA, the Wexner Center for the Arts and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. The exhibition presented sixteen life-size architectural interventions, four at each participating center, each produced by a team of architects who explored tectonic issues in a broad sense. The four installations presented at Plaça dels Àngels – the square in front of the MACBA building – explored and modified the surfaces that defined this public space. Vicente Gualla (Barcelona) created an intervention on the façade opposite the Museum, which drew attention to the occupation and the population density that was absent from the buildings in the square. Abalos & Herreros (Madrid) acted upon the façade of the MACBA building itself, cladding and decorating its most monumental elements: the tower and the balcony. Riegler Riewe (Graz) worked with the whole of the square, inscribing a broken horizontal line along the perimeter of the public space. Finally, MVRDV (Rotterdam) acted upon the paving through an evocation of a series of different kinds of sports grounds.” (MACBA website) Documenting the exhibition are design development drawings, correspondence, project descriptions, budgets, notes, and reference, graphic and photographic materials.

The project series documents the public commission for a project of the hotel, clubhouse and golf course ''El Toyo'', in Almería, Spain. The promoter was Alboran Golf U.T.E. The firm identified this project as number 155. The hotel has 90 double rooms including 3 suites, storage room, and a technical space underground. The roof was designed as an ecological green space, including a running path and the club house was arranged as a pavillion. "Making use of the differences in height created by the terraces proposed for the hotels Gran Terrace with the swimming pool, the Club-House will appear as a fold in the terrain, practically a topographic accident since it will be constructed by inclined concrete slabs which generate the interior space. The roof is accessible turning itself into a viewing platform for the whole complex, a strategy which gives the club a strong landscaping character.” (ARCH270975) Abalos & Herreros worked with José Maria Ezquiaga, Ángel Jaramillo Esteban, Elena Jaramillo Sánchez, Ángel Jaramillo Sánchez, Ramón Espinosa Garcia-Bermúdez, Leopoldo Espinosa Herraiz and OMA, Agustí Obiol y Luis Moya. The team won first prize for their project. It was not built, but was approved. Documenting the project are design development, presentation and working drawings, digital and reference materials, minutes, clippings, resumes, presentation documents, and project descriptions.
