Project series documents Cornelia Hahn Oberlander's landscape project for Hugo Eppich Residence on Groveland Road, near the corner with Evremount Drive, in West Vancouver, British Columbia. Oberlander worked on this project in 1984-1987 with architect Arthur Erickson. The concept for this project was to create a garden on sloped property and include a water feature. Oberlander designed a wooded area with pathways to wander in and a reflecting pond with water lilies at the bottom of the property, just under the house terrace. The project was completed in 1987. The project series contains design development drawings, such as landscape plans, planting plans, site plans and grading plans, and site plans used for reference. The project is also documented throught concept notes by Oberlander, correspondence with clients, architects and contractors, meetings notes, plant lists, and photographs of the landscaping work and the digging of the pond. The project series also contains a digital recording of the TV show "Homes by Design" with an interview about Hugo Eppich Residence and Arthur Erickson's work.

Steel House
Reference number:
AP144.S2.D60
Description:
File documents an unsuccessful competition entry, in collaboration with Miles Park, Douglas Smith and Frank Newby, for a mass-produced housing system using steel, for a competition sponsored by the European Coal and Steel Community. Requirements called for rapid assembly/disassembly, and flexible unit plans that could be altered by home owners and appeal to a wide range of owners and their preferences. Schematic sketches include exterior elevations, floor plans, preliminary details, and charts for building components. Conceptual sketches show alternate unit and floor plan arrangements, and include network analysis plans, site maximization plans based on transportability, family breakdown diagrams, alternate internal unit layout plans based on age and other factors, functional area plans indicating separation possibilities, and charts which cross-reference factors such as transportability, construction, and assembly requirements. Design development drawings show typical plans, site plans, sections, elevations, details, axonometric drawings of structure and cladding, internal units, and components. Some material in this file was published in Price, Cedric, "Steel Housing", 'Architectural Design', vol. 37, (May 1967) 244, and Price, Cedric, 'Cedric Price-Works II' (London: Architectural Press, 1984) 36, 49-50, 113. Material in this file was produced between 1965 and 1969. 'High Authority of the European Coal and Steel Community' is the full name of the client as found in the textual records. The title of the competition is 'International Competition for the Design of Industrially Fabricated Dwellings'. File contains conceptual drawings, design development drawings, photographic material, presentation panels, textual records, and model.

Chennai House
Reference number:
AP182.S1.2013.D1
Description:
File documents a project for a private house in Chennai, India. The design takes the form of a rectangular pavilion surrounding an open-air courtyard. The site is a former cricket pitch surrounded by a tropical garden. The structure is in granite, a material commonly used in Chennai, paired with lighter materials such as brick and timber. To address the city's hot and humid climate, the house is conceived as a porous structure that allows free circulation of air and water. An integrated irrigation system carries water between the home's corrugated roof, its exterior walls, and a series of surrounding lotus ponds and gardens. This movement mimics the visual and cooling effects of a rain shower multiple times each day. File contains drawings, photographs, and models.
