Project
AP178.S1.1984.PR03
Description:
This project series documents the Duas habitações e duas loja in Schilderswijk, The Hague, The Netherlands. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 31/80. The office assigned the date 1985 to this project. This project was part of the urban renewal program in Schilderswijk for which Siza designed the urban plan for Deelgebied Zone 5 Schilderswijk-West, the Punt en Komma social housing, Plano de Doedijnstraat, and Van der Vennerpark. The project consisted of two houses, two retail/office spaces, and a parking garage situated on Van der Vennestraat. One house was made with red brick, while the other was given a white exterior. The project was realised with project architect Carlos Castenheira in cooperation with Architektengroep Mecanoo. This project was designed in connection with the Van der Vennepark (project series AP178.S1.1985.PR01 in this fonds). The project series contains sketches, studies, plans, elevations and details. Textual documentation includes a letter from Adri Duivesteijn, The Hague alderman responsible for the urban renewal program, letters from Architektengroep Mecanoo (engeneering firm), notes from meetings on construction, and a letter from Castanheira. Documentation regarding the Van der Vennerpark (file AP178.S1.1985.PR01.001 in this fonds) also contains information related to the housing and shopping complex. Also included are photographs of the model, as well as slides of the model, drawings, and the built project. Note that photographs of the built project can also be found among photographic materials for Punt en Komma (file AP178.S1.1984.PR02.SS1.015 in this fonds).

AP144.S2.D1
Description:
Project series documents Cedric Price's early work (before 1960), some of it undertaken on behalf of other architects (Drew Drake & Lasdun), smaller projects, and miscellaneous project records, including unrealized project proposals, architectural competitions, self-financed research, and consultation. Material includes mostly conceptual and presentation drawings, some design development drawings and photographic material, as well as, a few detail and construction drawings. Many of the smaller projects include only a few drawings or photographs and some only contain textual records. Early projects include: renovations to the premises of Balding & Mansell; a model titled 'Projural at Cadogan Place/for N. Fraser Esq'; Oldham Pub; Corby Civic Centre and Small Jobs; Department Store display; Bradwell Lodge (Essex); Pearson House; Bachelors' quarters, Nigeria; Guest house Gachsaran, Iran; display and service table for the Architectural Association dining room (London); Decorative panel for the School of Engineering, University of Liverpool; basement extension for Sheila Delaney; shop conversion at 25 Pembridge Road (London); proposed exhibition stand for Granwood Flooring Co. Ltd; Ardyne Point; Trocadero; material on fish farming (see also DR2004:1298 in Series 3); renovation at 41 Newport Street (Oldham); and renovations at 27 Witley Court on Coram Street (Bloomsbury). Project series also contains material for the following minor projects: Theatre Project, New York; Competition Vaux Brewery; Competition Liverpool University; Cinema Picadilly; Cap Benat Villa (Cote d'Azur, France); U.S. Trade Centre (St James's Street, London); Tunisia (Report on Tourism); design for Kasmin Gallery, for the Anthony Hill Exhibit; Trog; Anti-University (London); Army; Ellis Hillman Extension; Chelsea FC Sports; Picstate; C.S.P.; J.R.D.; Seaside; R.H.D.R.; Glubble; Crucifix; Oil; Cardington; Commin; Trust; Jubilee; SS '91; USIT; FRIAR; Sensor; Trak; Pruda; Yorskhire, AA 150th Competition; Viaduct; Island; ECH; Plaspot; GEE; Donew; INIVA; Treehouse; and Stuttgart Competition. The project National School Plan (1964-1966) contains a proposal by Cedric Price for restructuring architectural education in the United Kingdom. Project series also contains material for Almshouses, at Lindow Lodge in Lancaster, England, and Parish Hall, in Middleton, Lancaster by C. B. Pearson & Son, Architects, for which Price's involvement is unclear. Miscellaneous record files include an unidentified interior perspective drawing; office instructions for pre-planning considerations for large festival sites; drawings that illustrate the office working method; a summary of Australian work; a summary of current ideas, as well as, various unidentified projects. 'TRDG' appears as a variant title for Trog (DR1995:0234). 'Comstutt' and 'Stuttgart' appear as variants titles for 'Stuttgart Competition' (DR1995:0258). 'Placemark' appears as a variant title for 'Plaspot' (DR2004:1286). 'Boys House, Stowe School', 'Stowe Buckingham', and 'New Boys House, Stowe School', appear as variant titles for 'Treehouse' (DR2004:1293). 'New Aviary, Cap Benat' and 'Aviary Project - Cap Benat, France' appear as variant titles for 'Cap Benat Villa'. 'Platou - Oil Platforms' appears as a variant title for 'Oil' (DR2004:1299 and DR2004:1300). DR1995:0168:001-003 and DR1995:0169:001-008 are attributed to Fry Drew Drake & Lasdun, although Cedric Price appears as the draughtsman. Group DR1995:0173 contains drawings attributed to C. B. Pearson & Son, Architects. Group DR2004:1354 contains a site plan attributed to SAG Cook, RIBA, Borough Architect. Photographs in DR2006:0086 and DR2004:1276 in Early Work and Miscellaneous Records (AP144.S2.D1) are attributed to Charles B. Pearson & Son Architects. Simister and Sutcliffe are associate architects for the renovations at 41 Newport Street, Oldham (DR2006:0080).

Project
CI005.S1.1927.PR1
Description:
The Kiefhoek housing scheme of 1925-1930 was initiated by the city of Rotterdam to provide affordable housing to working class residents. The Kiefhoek church of the Hersteld Apostolische Gemeente, or the New Apostolic Church, was intended as a communal space for residents of the Kiefhoek housing estate. Oud designed the church building, a verger's house and a green. The design includes a symmetrical orthogonal church hall and two blocks for the vestry and storage shed. Oud undertook the project without pay as he felt it was integral to the overall design of the complex. His original design consisted of a hippodrome-shaped building, which he later abandoned to create a unified dwelling, green and church (Taverne et al. 2001, 286-288). Project series includes drawings of plans for the Kiefhoek Church as well as photographs of the church's principle facade.
