Projects
AP143.S4
Description:
Series documents competition entries and projects by Peter Eisenman, and by the successive firms of Peter D. Eisenman, Architect; Eisenman/Robertson Architects; Design Development Resources, Limited Partnership; Esienman/Trott Architects; and Eisenman Architects. Several projects were carried out in association with other architects, institutions, and firms, including Michael Graves, the Institute for Architecture and Urban Studies (IAUS), Hanna/Olin Ltd., Steven Holl Architects, and Robert A.M. Stern Architects. A majority of projects were designed for the United States, Germany, and Japan. Other project locations include Spain, Italy, France, the Netherlands, Austria, Canada, Switzerland, Kuwait, Belgium, South Korea, Australia, and China. Material in this series was produced between 1925 and 2007. Series contains competition drawings, conceptual and design development drawings, publication and presentation drawings and panels, reference drawings, and working drawings. It also contains photographic materials, textual records, models and artefacts. Series is roughly arranged chronologically by project date. Beginning sometime in the 1980s, project documents were sometimes identified by the office using the following numbering system: x-yy-zz AAA x = administrative category 1 - Administrative and General Indirect 2- General Promotion 3- Business Development 4- Publication and Promotion 5- Direct Fee (billable) 6- Products and other Design (non-billable) yy = year zz = Project # (assigned sequentially each year starting with 01) AAA= abbreviated name of project, e.g. PAS for Perth Amboy High School (used intermittently)

Project
AP056.S1.1991.PR04
Description:
This project series documents Phase 2A of work completed for Hasbro Headquarters in Pawtucket, Rhode Island from 1991-1992. The office identified the project number as 9104. This project consisted of interior work for part of the company's headquarters and was the second in a series of projects that the firm would complete for the headquarters. The 300,000 square foot building was predominantly one-storey and located on the block between Saratoga, Grand, London and Newport Avenues. The three projects were known as Main Street, Phase 2A and Phase 2B. Phase 1 was completed in 1986 by Barton Myers Associates with Shirley Blumberg as partner-in-charge. These subsequent projects by KPMB were also headed by Shirley Blumberg and continued the initial style she had established in Phase 1. These projects saw the conversion of a historic brick and masonry mill into the company's new offices. The office structure was inspired by the layout of a Greek town, with a main street running through it. This phase included office areas for the engineering soft toys department, the creative services department, human resources and legal services, as well as a fabric library, fabric storage room, conference rooms, and a presentation theatre with a curved backdrop. Planning for the next phase and an east wing also began during this time. The project is recorded through drawings and a project model dating from 1988-1992. These are mostly original drawings and include sketches, plans, sections, elevations, perspectives, details, and some construction drawings. Many of the drawings focus on the office furniture.
