AP056.S1.1994.PR14
Description:
This project series documents renovations to the Stratford Festival Theatre in Stratford, Ontario from 1994-1997. The office identified the project number as 9428. This project consisted of the major reimagining and renewal of the famous tent-shaped theatre, which had not previously been updated in the 40 years since its original construction. Conceived with Thomas Payne as the partner-in-charge, the project reconceptualised the existing front-of-house spaces, the performance auditorium and the formal arrival space. The auditorium, which contained a Greek-style thrust stage inspired by Shakespeare's Globe Theatre, saw an increase in comfort by eliminating some seats to make the remaining more spacious. With this, site lines to the stage and the theatre acoustics were also improved. A large expansion of the theatre's lobby, box office, festival shops and member spaces accommodated the theatre's growing number of patrons. On the outside, a large curved entrance drive was added with extensive landscaping and gardens to add to the grandeur of the formal arrival area. A marquee space was also added to the building, which housed a year-round terrace. Thomas Payne created this project's original master plan under a different project number in 1988, but it should be noted that some materials in both projects are overlapping (see project series AP056.S1.1988.PR03 in this fonds). The project is recorded through drawings, presentation paintings and some textual materials dating from 1988-1996. The drawings are mostly originals and include sketches, presentation drawings, drawings for the model, plans, elevations, sections, perspectives, details and drawings of new furnishings. The textual records, which describe the project's design concept, are part of a presentation book.

Reference number:
AP144.S2.D70
Description:
File documents the executed project for an office building to house the computer facilities of the British Transport Docks Board (BTDB) at Bulls Bridge and Hayes Road, in Southall, Ealing, England. The building has few doors and no corridors, rooms for computers, data control and preparation, and offices for engineers, programmers, and analysts. The client anticipated a 20% expansion of facilities during the life-cycle of the building and Cedric Price developed designs for "expanding" the building without interrupting computer services which were to run 24 hours a day. Design included interior walls that can be dismounted and reinstalled, a raised flexible floor system, and an exterior cladding system that allowed for an interchange between opaque and transparent panels. Existing conditions material includes an ordinance survey (1963) and floor plans for an unidentified building. Design development and working drawings include site plans, floor plans, sections, elevations, and construction details. The plans show: circulation patterns and relationships between areas; a series of alternate floor plans for computer room expansion; connections between original and expanded services; the computer room and equipment; furniture layout; framing and structure; and plans for acoustic and visual barriers. Also included are axonometric drawings of the phased development/expansion of the structure; design validation charts which measure projected "required" design elements against observation and investigation; environmental control charts exploring alternate proposals for illumination, ventilation, air, temperature, and acoustic control of certain areas, and diagrammatic sections showing environmental controls for air intake, returns and circulation; project requirements charts; project task sequencing diagrams; perspective drawings; elevations and sections for an illuminated sign; and details and wall sections for the exterior cladding. Twenty-nine individual and 60 sets of reprographic copies are stamped "issued contractor". Material for publication includes: details, site plans, floor plans and exterior elevations, b/w post-construction photographs, and a photo collage. Some material from this file was published in: Price, Cedric, "ECHOES: Environment Controlled Human Operational Enclosed Spaces", 'Architectural Design' (October 1969), 547-552; "Cedric Price Supplement No. 2", 'Architectural Design', vol. 41, (January 1971), 25; Price, Cedric, 'Cedric Price-Works II' (London: Architectural Press, 1984), 72, 82-83, 112, 113. Material in this file was produced between 1966 and 1984, but predominantly between 1968 and 1973. Sandy Brown appears as the acoustics consultant and Zisman, Bowyer & Partners appear as the services consultants in this file. File contains design development drawings, working drawings, reference drawings, photographic materials, and textual records.

Description:
This project series documents renovations to the concert hall of the Royal Conservatory of Music in Toronto from 1995-1996. The office identified the project number as 9512. This project consisted of restauration work and renovations to the existing Castle Memorial Hall, part of the music school originally built in 1901, now renamed the Ettore Mazzoleni Concert Hall. This project was part of a larger master plan, created by KPMB in 1991 under the direction of Marianne McKenna, that outlined multiple phases of renovations and additions to the school (see file AP056.S1.1991.PR07.010 for complete master plan). The restauration work included opening bricked-over windows, removing paint and acoustic panels, and opening the original stair tower. Renovations included the addition of a curved mahogany stage, new maple floors and new acoustic controls. The 6,000 square foot performance venue held 240 seats.[1] The project is recorded through drawings and a presentation painting dating from 1994-1997. The drawings include plans, sections, elevations, details and millwork and furnishings drawings. [1]"Royal Conservatory / Ettore Mazzoleni Hall." KPMB.

This project series documents renovations to the concert hall of the Royal Conservatory of Music in Toronto from 1995-1996. The office identified the project number as 9512. This project consisted of restauration work and renovations to the existing Castle Memorial Hall, part of the music school originally built in 1901, now renamed the Ettore Mazzoleni Concert Hall. This project was part of a larger master plan, created by KPMB in 1991 under the direction of Marianne McKenna, that outlined multiple phases of renovations and additions to the school (see file AP056.S1.1991.PR07.010 for complete master plan). The restauration work included opening bricked-over windows, removing paint and acoustic panels, and opening the original stair tower. Renovations included the addition of a curved mahogany stage, new maple floors and new acoustic controls. The 6,000 square foot performance venue held 240 seats.[1] The project is recorded through drawings and a presentation painting dating from 1994-1997. The drawings include plans, sections, elevations, details and millwork and furnishings drawings. [1]"Royal Conservatory / Ettore Mazzoleni Hall." KPMB.
