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:
Series 3, Tongxian Art Center, Beijing, 2000 – 2007, documents the development of a multiphase project for a public arts complex thirty miles from Beijing. Phases are distinguished when possible. Phase I of the project is the gatehouse (realized), which consists of housing and studio space for artists-in-residence. It is conceived as a brick monolith that has been shrink-wrapped or vacuumed into its shape – a metaphor for the optimization of the building’s limited space. Regional materials are incorporated through the use of local brick and native chudumu wood on the exterior. The gatehouse was completed in 2003. Phase II of the project is the art center (unrealized), which consists of public spaces, sculpture courts, administrative spaces and infrastructural needs of the institution, connected through a series of alleyways. The layout is organized to maximize interaction between inhabitants while maintaining a level of privacy. In addition to phases I and II, records in the series document a design referred to as Tongxian Gatekeeper (unrealized). Drawings, circa 2006, illustrate a building to house animals and agriculture in the southwest corner of the Tongxian Art complex grounds. The series contains sketches, drawings and reprographic copies from pre-design to construction stages of the project, two models including a wood model of the art center and a cardboard model of the gatekeeper wall, and photographic materials. The series also contains textual documents including correspondence with on-site project coordinator Timothy Clark, as well as meeting agendas, project schedules, agreements and proposals, and other project documentation. Digital material includes photographs of construction, CAD drawings, renderings, e-mail, and a video featuring the project team. The majority of material in the series relates to phase I of the project, the gatehouse. Some files include documentation about the involvement of contemporary artist Ai Wei Wei in a supervisory role for the project.

Description:
This project series documents the second stage of the expansion of the Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO) in Toronto from 1972-1977. The office identified the project number as 7208. This project consisted of the expansion of the AGO that began in 1972. It was Stage II of the expansion program, which began in 1969 with Stage I. Most prominent in this project was the extension of the gallery’s west side to reach Beverley Street. This wing housed the new Education and Extension (E&E) branch galleries and educational facilities, and a two-storey reference library. The library included a 10,000 square foot reading room and an audiovisual library. This stage also proposed an extension to the south of the main gallery, directly east of the Grange mansion, that would connect the AGO to the neighbouring Ontario College of Art. It should be noted that while AGO project contracts were originally given to John B. Parkin Associates, John C. Parkin continued the project under his new firm, Parkin Architects Planners, after parting ways with partner John B. Parkin in 1971. The project is recorded through drawings, photographs, and textual records dating from 1971-1983. The majority of the drawings are reprographic copies of detail drawings arranged with the textual records, although original drawings of details are also present within the textual records. Large drawings housed separately show both the design development and construction of the project. There are also presentation boards showing floor plan schemes. The textual records include contractor and client correspondence, meeting reports, specifications, project notebooks, tender documents, contract data, consultancy records, site reports, certificates of payment and other financial documentation, change orders, supplementary instructions, deficiency lists, detail planning records, and studies. Box AP018.S1.1972.PR08.001 contains an index to the textual records, which was created by the office.

This stage also proposed an extension to the south of the main gallery, directly east of the Grange mansion, that would connect the AGO to the neighbouring Ontario College of Art. It should be noted that while AGO project contracts were originally given to John B. Parkin Associates, John C. Parkin continued the project under his new firm, Parkin Architects Planners, after parting ways with partner John B. Parkin in 1971. The project is recorded through drawings, photographs, and textual records dating from 1971-1983. The majority of the drawings are reprographic copies of detail drawings arranged with the textual records, although original drawings of details are also present within the textual records. Large drawings housed separately show both the design development and construction of the project. There are also presentation boards showing floor plan schemes. The textual records include contractor and client correspondence, meeting reports, specifications, project notebooks, tender documents, contract data, consultancy records, site reports, certificates of payment and other financial documentation, change orders, supplementary instructions, deficiency lists, detail planning records, and studies. Box AP018.S1.1972.PR08.001 contains an index to the textual records, which was created by the office.

Description:
This series documents nine projects by the firm Rosen, Caruso, Vecsei Architects. The practice was opened in partnership by Bernard Rosen, Irving Caruso and André Vecsei. The latter was partner until his departure in 1984 when he founded Vecsei Architects with Eva Hollo Vecsei. During his time at Rosen, Caruso, Vecsei Architect, André was the partner in charge of several projects including: Twenty-five story apartment building, Lincoln Avenue and St. Mathieu Street, Montréal, Québec (circa 1962-1974); Nursing home, Côte-Saint-Luc, Québec (circa 1962-1970); Senoir’s home, Manoir Outremont, Outremont, Québec (1977); Intermunicipal library, Pierrefonds, Montréal, Québec (circa 1980-1984). Eva Hollo Vecsei did not work for the firm Rosen, Caruso, Vecsei Architects. This series documents the following projects: Golf clubhouse, Mirabel, Québec (circa 1962-1970); Fraternity house, Montréal, Québec (circa 1964); Marina, Expo 67, Montréal, Québec (1965-1966); Engineering Institute of Canada, Montréal, Québec (circa 1967); International Civil Aviation Organisation building, Montréal, Québec (circa 1974); Seniors home, Manoir Outremont, Outremont, Québec (1977); Fort de la Montagne, Westmount, Québec (circa 1980-1982); and City hall and municipal library, Côte-Saint-Luc, Québec (circa 1981-1984). Also included are sketches from 1962 to 1984 for an unidentified project. Collection material in this series was produced between 1974 and 2006. Documenting the series are architectural records, such as conceptual, design, presentation, and working drawings, as well as photographs, digital material (mainly photographs), and a sketchbook. The bulk of the material was produced between 1981 and 1984, which corresponds to the period during which André Vecsei worked on the city hall and municipal library, in Côte-Saint-Luc, Québec. Documenting this project are working drawings and a few digitized sketches and photographs.
