Address book documents the addresses of friends and colleagues of Gordon Matta-Clark from the period of his activity as an artist/architect. Much of the information is duplicated in his small black address book (PHCON2002:0016:021:003), suggesting perhaps that the smaller book was used on trips. Address book is arranged by location.

Projet
AP178.S1.1996.PR01
Description:
This project series documents the Kolonihaven - Exposição ao ar livre in Copenhagen, Denmark. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 73/90 The office assigned the date 1996 to this project. At the end of the 19th century, there was an important migration of people from the rural areas to the cities in Denmark. Some migrants missed the contact with the soil and decided to built small houses with gardens to help them to adapt to their new urban life. These small Danish houses we're later named Kolonihavehus and became emblematic in Denmark. The exhibition Kolonihaven - The International challenge was held in Copenhagen by the Arken Museum of Modern Art. Fourteen international architects, including Álvaro Siza, Aldo Rossi, Mario Botta, Michael Graves, Arata Isozaki, and Leon Krier were invited to design a 7.5 square meter Danish house. Siza's design was based on his idea of a house as a child mixed with his memories of a trip to Scandinavia. The fourteen architects also participated in the exhibition "Major Projects" at the Køge Museum, in Køge, Danmark. The exhibition focused on the sketches and preliminary drawings of majort projects by each architect. Documenting this project are sketches and documentation.

AP075.S1.1983.PR02
Description:
Project series documents Cornelia Hahn Oberlander's landscape project for the Canadian Chancery on Pennsylvania Avenue, in Washington D.C. Oberlander worked in this project from 1983-1989 with architect Arthur Erickson. Oberlander and Erickson received the National Landscape Award for the project landscape design. The design included a paved courtyard accessible through Pennsylvania Avenue and John Marshall Place Park. Oberlanded connected the park, designed by landscape architect Carol L. Johnson in 1983, to the Chancery site by adding a paving area in place of the closed street separating the two blocks. A terraced façade featuring a hanging garden with trees and roses was design as a way of extending the John Marshall Park up to the roof of the building. The project series contains sketches and working drawings for the landscaping, including planting plans, irrigation plans, planters details, sections and planters irrigation plans, and architectural plans provided for reference use. It also contains photographs of the building and the courtyard landscaping. The project is also documented through textual records, including concept notes by Oberlander, correspondence with clients, architects, suppliers and consultants, specifications, meetings notes, financial documents, promotional material and articles on the project.

DR1988:0411
Description:
- This reprographic copy shows the interior of a room with two rows of columns supporting a barrel vaulted arch over the central aisle. The rest of the ceiling is coffered. The room is identified as a furniture showroom because the walls of the room are lined with furniture and there are several groups of people standing around a few chairs and rugs in the centre of the room. - 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 linked to the article "Music in Stone" published prior to 1926 in 'The Architect'; a reprographic copy (DR1988:0357) and a drawing (DR1988:0364) (Who's Who in Architecture, 161).
