Description:
- This etching of a fireworks construction or macchina is in the form of a pavilion with unroofed arcades extending to either side. The pavilion is roofed by a tent-like structure and is open at front and back to show a group of people gathered around a large table. The two arcades are made of palm trees: the tree trunks are the columns and their leaves form the arches. The substructure includes rooms containing animals, which are visible behind barred windows.

Description:
The project series documents the competition entry for the planning of the Orange County Suuokita Memorial Park in California, United States. The project site was previously a military base. The firm identified this project as number 212b “The first action will be to excavate the existing E-W runways and construct in their place a great water channel. The second action will be to plant a large grid of indigenous trees over the entire site in tandem with the installation of irrigation systems. The third main gesture will be to transform the surfaces of the remaining runways into smaller gardens […] Following upon these initial gestures, [Abalos & Herreros] propose a series of vertical structures that will serve to punctuate the great horizontal expanse of the park, providing another scale to the park.” (ARCH270975) Documenting the project are presentation drawings, correspondence, reference materials, notes, project descriptions, presentation documents, publications and a dummy.

Description:
Project series documents Cornelia Hahn Oberlander's landscape project for Student Housing at Simon Fraser University in Burnaby, British Columbia. Oberlander worked on this project from 1991-1993 with architectural firm Matsuzaki Wright Architects. The landscape concept consisted in including the student housing building in a native woodland setting. Oberlander integrated the building with the existing woodland by adding native trees around the building and the access pathways and drives. The project series contains design development drawings, including landscape concept plans, and landscape plans, and working drawings, such as grading plans, planting plans and landscape sections. It also contains construction drawings for the building used as reference. The project is also documented through textual records, such as concept notes by Oberlander, correspondence, including correspondence with architects, clients and consultants, reports and studies on the site, specifications, financial documents, and photographs of the landscaping.

Description:
This project series documents Cornelia Hahn Oberlander's playground project for University Hill Elementary School on Chancellor Boulevard, in University Endowment Lands, Vancouver, British Columbia. Oberlander worked on this project in 1957. She developed her concept for the school play area with a participatory method, asking the children to draw the plants they would like to have included in the landscaping. It consisted in a paved area right at the back of the school, tennis courts to be used for wheeltoys and movable equipment for play, and large lawn area for free play with quiet area to sit. The lawn area includes a play space with logs, rocks, climbing trees and a loghouse situated at the southwest corner of the playground. The project series contains landscape sketches, design development drawings, landscape plan for the proposal playground, and a presentation panel. The project is also documented through textual records, such as correspondence, research material and press clipping on the school.
