Project
AP164.S1.1987.D3
Description:
This project series documents the design and construction vertical structure prototype to install on skyscrapers and communication towers. This design was recycled for other Abalos & Herreros projects, such as for the Residual water treatment plant, “El Chaparral”, Guadarrama (AP164.S1.1986.D5.SD3) and for the Centro de Calculo de Telefónica, Madrid (AP164.S1.1989.D1). It was also transformed into a water tower (Torre de agua) in 1990. The firm identified this project as number 48. Documenting the project are design development drawings and notes.

Description:
This project appears to document the design, in 1994, of the headquarters of the Walter Carsen Center for the National Ballet of Canada located in the King's Landing building at 470 Queens Quay West, Toronto, Ontario. The project was built in 1995. The office identified the project number as 9417. Plans, sketches, elevations and sections shows the design process, design development and studies along with construction details for the layout of the administrative spaces and rehearsal spaces. The project is recorded through drawings dating from 1994-1996.

Series
AP175.S1
Description:
Series 1, Erasmus Bridge, Rotterdam, Netherlands, 1990-1996, documents the design, conception and construction of a third bridge for Rotterdam over the Nieuwe Maas River. The bridge connects the Kop van Zuid neighborhood, located on the south side of the river, to Willemsplein, located on the north side. The bridge is considered as a landmark in Rotterdam’s landscape. The Erasmus Bridge was a formative project in the thinking of UNStudio. It was originally supposed to be designed by architect Maarten Struijs who was the city of Rotterdam principal architect and who is responsible for the concept of the neighboring Willem Bridge. Ben van Berkel came later into the project and was hired as a designing consultant along with architect Wim Quist. Ben van Berkel proposed design was selected allowing him and his firm, which was called Van Berkel & Bos Architectuurbureau at that time, to supervise the conception and construction of the project, from the original concept to piers design to the selection of every item of bridge furniture such as traffic lights, bridge camera and handrails. The bridge was designed to fit the distinct character and industrial past of Rotterdam. The construction of this landmark was one component of a larger redevelopment project, coinciding with other major developments in the city of Rotterdam. The goal was to develop a dense urban intervention on the southern shore of the Nieuwe Maas, in the Kop van Zuid neighborhood. This explains the implication of UNStudio in the planning of urban configuration of the neighborhoods on both sides of the river and their work for Spido, a ferry company operating on the Nieuwe Maas, work spaces and parking garage. This commercial building was designed by the firm and also hosts The Grand Café and Jazz Café. This commercial building is integrated to one of the bridge pillar on the north shore of the river. For the design the firm used AutoCAD to work along with engineers and to conceptualize 3D models. They also used the software to evaluate the circulation flow of drivers, pedestrians and streetcars, measuring its impact on the structure and the urban configuration of the neighborhoods on both sides of the river. The records contain sketches for bridge and pier design, plans and sections for pier, Spido and bridge, architectural and construction details created by engineering companies for every component of the bridge, from drawbridge, to cable car system, to bridge furnitures such as traffic light, handrails and cameras and photographs documenting the research for precedent and the original configuration of the neighborhoods on both sides of the river. The record contains AutoCAD plans, details and sections for both the bridge and Spido parking garage. The records also contain one physical model: a small scale plastic, glass and metal model of the bridge.
