Carnet de croquis
AP066.S1
Description:
La série est composée d'un groupe de onze carnets contenant des notes et des croquis relatifs aux projets conçus par Jacques Rousseau entre 1982 et 1997. Presque tous les projets de Rousseau y sont représentés. On y retrouve aussi des ébauches de projets qui ont été soit abandonnés, comme la transformation de la maison Coloniale en " Maison de l'architecture ", soit développés dans d'autres projets, comme, par exemple, le projet de Montréal " sous-terrain " qui a servi à la fois au projet du Musée des Beaux-Arts de Montréal et à l'exposition Du poétique de la maquette et de ses répliques.
