Castelli House
Reference number:
AP143.S4.D26
Description:
This project series documents an unexecuted project for Castelli House, also known as House El Even Odd, designed for the exhibition "Houses for Sale" displayed at the Leo Castelli Gallery in New York, and later at the James Corcoran Gallery in Los Angeles, United States. Material in this file was produced in 1980. There are few drawings by Eisenman for this house; he is most concerned with publication layouts in twelve of the drawings (DR1994:0140:001-012). An original transformation diagram documents the triple axonometric transformation of the "el" (DR1994:0140:051, published in Archer, 24-25). Two texts by Eisenman concerning House El Even Odd explain his intentions (published in Archer, 18-19). These texts, currently grouped with the material for Fin d'Ou T Hou S (DR1994:0141:250-252), are positive prints of the KC5 negative DR1994:0140:079. Fragments of models for House El Even Odd are also included in this project series; finished versions of the models are part of the CCA can be found in file DR1987:0857 and DR1987:0858. Note that model DR1994:0140:080 is in pieces and could not be measured. File contains conceptual drawings, design development drawings, presentation drawings, models, photographic material, and textual records. Conceptual drawings include plans and axonometrics - many graphite or black felt-tip pen on wove paper and some coloured felt-tip pen on tracing paper; and reprographic copies - one photocopy one wove paper. Design development drawings include plans, sections, and elevations - some graphite and/or black felt-tip pen on yellow trace. Presentation drawings include plans, sections, elevations, perspectives, and axonometrics - many pen and black ink and translucent adhesive coloured film on mylar and some pen and black ink on tracing vellum; reprographic copies - mostly blueline prints on wove paper; and one photomechanical print - on wove paper. Notes include notes and an invoice - one pen and black ink on wove paper and one graphite on ruled paper.

AP056.S1.1994.PR03
Description:
This project series documents a park in Oakville, Ontario in 1994. The office identified the project number as 9401. This project was the winning entry in a competition to design a park in an area known as the Uptown Core, which was undergoing major transformations at the time. The park, now known as Oak Park, stretched several blocks north-east from the Sixth Line. The large part of the design included a greenhouse pavilion overlooking a lake, accompanied by a bridge that extended south-west towards a wooded area. The project is recorded through drawings and presentation watercolour paintings dating from around 1994. The drawings are mostly originals and primarily include site surveys, sketches, plans, elevations and perspectives.

Bar "le Business"
Reference number:
AP066.S2.D14
Description:
Le dossier documente l'aménagement intérieur (conception et réalisation) du bar "Le Business", situé au 3500 boul. St-Laurent, à Montréal, Québec. Le budget aloué pour ce projet était de 450 000$. Aussi, le projet s'est mérité le Prix d'excellence de l'OAQ, Mention en architecture, en 1986. Le dossier contient des dessins, des photographies, des reprographies, des documents textuels et des documents photographiques. Description du projet par l'architecte: "Le bar sera le projet de la transformation d'un espace brut au rez-de-chaussée d'un bâtiment industriel construit au centre-ville de Montréal. Il sera un bar pour danser où auront lieu des événements spectaculaires de toutes sortes. À ce programme concret, un projet thématique fait écho: la ville et l'industrie, le bar et le théâtre seront des clés structurantes auxquelles le processus de conception sera lié. Certaines indications du programme révèlent des aspects recherchés qui caractérisent ces thème." Jacques Rousseau, 66-B014-015T.
