Project
AP027.S1.D34
Description:
This project series documents a series of commissions to study the various requirements for the future of the Montréal International Airport given the increase in traffic and potential future technological innovations in aviation. Van Ginkel Associates looked at three options: expanding the airport located in Dorval; abandonning Dorval as a site completely; and keeping the Dorval location and adding another airport at a new site. In their study they included future operations, systems, and the impact on the region, including site selection studies, studies of industrial and commercial development related to the airport, and its anticipated activity. Proposals for land use and the reorganization of the territory surrounding the new site were also presented.

Pahang Tenggara
AP027.S1.D51
Description:
The preparation of a comprehensive plan for the socio-economic development of Pahang Tenggara, a region of approximately 4,000 square miles. A master plan for the optimum utilization and development of its human and natural resources over a 20 year period was prepared. A complete inventory of the physical condition and natural resources of the area was required, as well as an assessment of the human and economic capabilities, both in its adjoining regions and the nation as a whole. The plan provides guidelines and a basic framework for future development by public, government-assisted and private investments until 1990. The plan also details the economic feasibility of primary resources and secondary industrial projects, and all related social and physical infrastructure requirements.

AP178.S1.1999.PR08
Description:
This project series documents the Projecto de Ordenación nel Âmbito del Vapor Turull in Sabadell, Spain. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 114/90. The office assigned the date 1999 to this project. The project was for offices for the municipality of Sabadell in the industrial building of the Vapor Turull company. It included office spaces, an exterior public parking for 330 cars, and an interior parking in the basement. The H-shaped building had a 7634 m2 surface. There is no documentation in the archive suggesting if the building was realized or not. Documenting this project are sketches and plans. Textual material includes correspondence and documentation from the city of Sabadell and photographic materials document the model.

AP018.S1.1973.PR06
Description:
This project series documents a proposal for an athletic, cultural and industrial campus in Mississauga, Ontario, between Dixie Road, Aerowood Drive and the Highway 401. This project was known as Mississauga Sports Complex at the beginning of the project from 1973-1974, but later became the Gordie Howe Sports Centre in 1975. The office identified the project number as 7306. The project consisted of a group of buildings including a tennis court, an arena, and a interior jogging track. The project is recorded through drawings and textual records dating from 1973-1976. The majority of the drawings are originals that show site plans, floor plans, elevations, sections, and structural drawings. Textual records include correspondence with clients and consultants as well as conference reports.

Description:
This project series documents the Sifto Salt Division Mill and Warehouse of Domtar Chemicals Limited in Goderich, Ontario, Canada from 1962-1963. The office probably identified the project number as either 6237 or 6264. This project consisted of a 62,000 square foot facility on the existing industrial complex of Domtar. The building was clad in epoxy faced brick and concrete up to the third floor, while the rest of the structure was clad in ribbed cement asbestos siding up to the roof. The building included process areas, packaging areas, a warehouse, bagging room, offices, cafeteria and canteen, and shipping and recieving areas. This project won a special mention at the Massey Medal for Architecture in 1964. The project is recorded through a mounted photograph showing the finished buillding.

Objectile records
AP169.S1
Description:
Series 1, Objectile, 1993 - 2011, relates to the firm’s activities, from the production of decorative panels to the management of daily business. This series includes born-digital material and chiefly dates from 2004-2008. “Objectile” is a term first proposed by philosopher Gilles Deleuze in his book The Fold, published in 1988. It was used to name the research conducted by Bernard Cache and his associate Patrick Beaucé around the development of industrial means to produce “non-standard” objects. In his book Earth Moves (Terre Meuble), Bernard Cache describes non-standard objects as repeatable variations on a theme, such as a family of curves declining the same mathematical model. The randomness of their patterns recalls earth’s forms and curves, the way geography generates nature’s topography. Cache also wanted these folds and curves to express a relationship between the exterior (geography) and the interior (furniture) of architecture. From these ideas, the firm Objectile was founded created to industrially produce and market those non-standard objects mostly taking the form of decorative panels. Those panels and other furniture were among the first objects to be computationally designed with computer-aided design software (CAD) and then industrially built through computer numerical control (CNC). The patterns were designed through unique algorithms that could endlessly be modified and personalized. Materials in this series reflect the work of Objectile. This includes design and execution records for the different wooden panels and other furniture, which are primarily in still image and CAD formats (TopSolid, AutoCAD). There is also a significant body of material for the Objectile website (in HTML and XML formats). The series additionally includes textual documentation reflecting the administration of the firm, including accounting and legal documentation, as well as correspondence. These materials are in typical office formats and include email.
