Project
CI005.S1.1942.PR1
Description:
Dissatisfied with the original plans by architect Van Nieuwenhuyzen for the construction of the Spaarbank, the Rotterdam Town Plan Advisory Bureau commissioned Oud to instead design the bank in 1942 with Van Nieuwenhuyzen acting as adviser. Oud presented his original design in 1942: it featured a five-storey building with a facade of glazed brick, a frosted glass ceiling in the main hall and chromium- and metal- plated window frames. Oud limited his use of decorations in his revised plan, assigning artist, Aart van den IJssel, to create symbolic animal sculptures. Oud also designed some of its furniture (Taverne et al. 2001, 437-439). Project series includes photographs of the furniture for the Spaarbank as well as plans.

AP018.S1.1964.PR06
Description:
This project series documents the Warner-Lambert Research Institute of Canada in Sheridan Park, Mississauga, Ontario from 1964-1966. The office identified the project number as 6417. This project consisted of administrative offices, laboratories and animal rooms housed in a 30,000 square foot building. The single-storey building was raised on a 3-foot podium and its exteriors were comprised of white brick with dark solar bronze glazed windows breaking up the façade. The H-shaped building was built with rigorous temperature controls and vermin proof electrical systems. This project is recorded through drawings and a presentation panel dating from 1964 to around 1966. The drawings are all reprographic copies and consist of plans, elevations, sections, details, schedules and structural drawings. The presentation panel shows the completed building.

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.
