Castelli House
Castelli House
Reference number:
AP143.S4.D26
Description:
This project series documents an unexecuted project for Castelli House, also known as House El Even Odd, designed for the exhibition "Houses for Sale" displayed at the Leo Castelli Gallery in New York, and later at the James Corcoran Gallery in Los Angeles, United States. Material in this file was produced in 1980. There are few drawings by Eisenman for this house; he is most concerned with publication layouts in twelve of the drawings (DR1994:0140:001-012). An original transformation diagram documents the triple axonometric transformation of the "el" (DR1994:0140:051, published in Archer, 24-25). Two texts by Eisenman concerning House El Even Odd explain his intentions (published in Archer, 18-19). These texts, currently grouped with the material for Fin d'Ou T Hou S (DR1994:0141:250-252), are positive prints of the KC5 negative DR1994:0140:079. Fragments of models for House El Even Odd are also included in this project series; finished versions of the models are part of the CCA can be found in file DR1987:0857 and DR1987:0858. Note that model DR1994:0140:080 is in pieces and could not be measured. File contains conceptual drawings, design development drawings, presentation drawings, models, photographic material, and textual records. Conceptual drawings include plans and axonometrics - many graphite or black felt-tip pen on wove paper and some coloured felt-tip pen on tracing paper; and reprographic copies - one photocopy one wove paper. Design development drawings include plans, sections, and elevations - some graphite and/or black felt-tip pen on yellow trace. Presentation drawings include plans, sections, elevations, perspectives, and axonometrics - many pen and black ink and translucent adhesive coloured film on mylar and some pen and black ink on tracing vellum; reprographic copies - mostly blueline prints on wove paper; and one photomechanical print - on wove paper. Notes include notes and an invoice - one pen and black ink on wove paper and one graphite on ruled paper.

AP056.S1.1999.PR01
Description:
This project series documents the Canadian Embassy in Berlin, Germany from 1999-2005. The office identified the project number as 9903. This project consisted of a new embassy building for Canada in the reunified German capital located at the junction of Leipziger Platz and Potsdamer Platz. The embassy was built in joint venture with Gagnon Letellier Cyr Architects and Smith Carter Architects and Engineers. The firms were selected for the project by the Canadian Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade after a national competition was held. The competition jury had chosen a different design, by architecture firm Saucier + Perrotte.[1] The embassy, built to follow the original octagonal wall of Leipziger Platz, had a stone exterior punched with windows, as dictated by the District Office of Central Berlin's guidelines.[2] It occupied the first four floors of the Leipziger Platz block and all floors of the Ebertstrasse block. Inside, the Focus Canada Centre off the Ebertstrasse entrance served as the central government information centre and included interactive kiosks. The Embassy Reception Hall, complete was an Inuksuk at its entrance, was a space that greeted guests and provided consular services. The Canada Lounge defined the ground floor and provided a space where visitors could engage with Canadian news through newspapers, radios and televisions. The cylindrical Great Timber Hall pierced through the embassy. This wood-lined space had a sky-light ceiling to allow natural light to flow inside and served as an executive meeting room and a space for special guests, entertainment, events and exhibits. Retail spaces were also provided along Vossstrasse and a residential component made up the upper floors of Leipziger Platz. The project is recorded through a model and drawings dating from 1998-2000. The large part of these drawings are sketches, but plans, elevations, sections, perspectives and details are also included.
