Project
AP151.S1.D3
Description:
File documents an executed project for a parish house and cloister and for parking and planting for the Wayfarers' Chapel. The project for the Parish House and Cloister was part of the 1947 conception ffor the Chapel and was the third unit of construction, after the chapel proper and the campanile. In its conception, this project consisted of a cloister, cloister garden, and a community house, later renamed the parish house. The concept as it was developed between 1954 and 1957 resulted in the construction of the parish house and cloister; the cloister garden was developed separately at a later date, ca. 1959 (DR1987:0698). Material in the file was produced between 1953 and 1959. File contains conceptual, design and design development drawings with a few presentation and technical drawings.

Description:
- This reprographic copy shows an imitation mother-of-pearl lamp shade to be suspended by a bronze chain. There is a thumbnail sketch of the design in the lower right corner. - This work is part of an incomplete group of possibly working reprographic copies for Electric House, Battersea Borough, designed by the borough architect, Henry Hyams. The group also includes some reprographic copies which may have been used for publication purposes. - The style of many of these drawings and reprographic copies by Henry Hyams (DR1988:0332 - DR1988:0414) suggests that they were possibly for periodical illustrations. Hyams contributed articles to the periodicals 'The Builder' and 'The Architect'. Two objects in the CCA collections can be directly linked to an article published prior to 1926 in 'The Architect'; a reprographic copy (DR1988:0357) and a drawing (DR1988:0364) (Who's Who in Architecture, 161).

Description:
- One of a group of working drawings for William Burn's October 1849 project for Fonthill House, Wiltshire, a country house designed in the Jacobethan style. This group represents only one of the projects that Burn proposed for Fonthill House; the final project, executed in 1856, was much smaller (Walker, 31, illustrated in Hitchcock, vol. 2, fig. VIII 31). Drawings include plans, elevations, and sections, as well as full-scale drawings of masonry details. Approximately half of the drawings are part of a numbered series from one to twenty-two, while the other drawings, mostly masonry details, were not numbered. These latter drawings are not as carefully finished, and a few are incomplete.
