Project
AP178.S1.1990.PR09
Description:
The project series documents the Recuperação do Restaurante Pai Ramiro in Porto, Portugal. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 19/90. The office assigned the dates 1990-1994 for this project. This project consists of a design for the restaurant Pai Ramiro in an existing eighteenth-century home. The restaurant was to have a capacity of 36 people, with a waiting bar, kitchen, storage spaces and a second-floor terrace. The building program proposed a bar area flooded in natural light from windows that revealed a backyard garden. The installation of air conditioning, a fire detection system and ventilation systems were also proposed. This project was not built. The project is recorded through drawings, photographic materials and some textual records dating from 1989-1995. The drawings include sketches, plans, elevations, sections, perspectives, details and framing drawings, while the photographic materials largely document the exisiting building. The textual records consist of correspondence, permit and supplier documentation, and the electrical program.

Description:
This project series documents alterations and additions to the home of Conrad and Shirley Black in North York, Ontario from 1980-1982. The office identified the project number as 8007.
