Description:
- Suzanne K. Williamson indicates that this photograph shows the second enclosure and tower "12" (at the far right of the image) of the Krak de Chevaliers Castle, Ottoman Empire (now Syria) from the northeast (Nov. 1986). Further research should include verification of this information and identification of the source(s) from which it was obtained. The cardinal point indicated in the title, also provided by Williamson, is presumed to be correct.

Projet
CI005.S1.1915.PR1
Description:
In 1911-1913, the Hostel for Lower Naval Personnel was designed by architect Piet Kramer, a building for which Oud claimed that he created competition designs. Researchers, however, do not support this claim as Oud's designs are dated 1915. Oud's plans feature a lounge and off-centre entrance and staircase, as well as a reading room for a convalescent hospital for soldiers. Oud's designs feature a geometrical composition based on a system of triangles. The designs were considered stylistically significant and displayed in the 1917 Sphinx "International Exhibition" (Taverne et al. 2001,107). The series includes photographs of the competition design floor plans and elevations.

Résumé:
The Mark Goulthorpe HypoSurface project records, 1990-2014, document the design development, technical implementation, exhibition, and marketing of various iterations of the HypoSurface wall. The wall has a “skin” divided up into pixel-like metallic facets manipulated by a network of actuating pistons in order to create images, texts and patterns in dynamic relief. Sensors allow people near the wall to influence its movement. The records include approximately 62,700 digital files, 3 folders of textual documents, and 44 prototype pieces, and a working HypoSurface wall module.

Description:
File documents work undertaken by the Lightweight Enclosures Unit (LEU) for the Department of the Environment (DOE), to produce a Draft for Development Code of Practice for Air Supported Structures (DD50) for general use by industry. The project was carried out by Frank Newby and Cedric Price, and includes some of the initial research originally carried out for Air Structures (AP144.S2.D63) and Lightweight Enclosures Unit (AP144.S2.D79). They developed and circulated a questionnaire on behalf of DOE, dated August 1973. The Draft for Development was produced on behalf of British Standards Institution (BSI) for PSA (Property Services Agency) of the Department of the Environment (DOE). Material in this file was produced between 1951 and 1993, but predominantly between 1965 and 1975. Group DR2004:0168 contains material by Ant Farm. Groups DR2004:0170 and DR2004:0172 contain materials that relate to Frei Otto. File contains samples, design development drawing, photographic material, and textual records.

AP018.S1.1978.PR07
Description:
This project series documents a site study for the new National Gallery of Canada in Ottawa, Ontario in 1978. The office identified the project number as 7809. In 1977, Parkin Architects Planners won a limited architectural competition for their design of the new National Gallery of Canada. The selected site for the competition, next to the Ottawa River, was controversial due to its uneven ground and lack of access to main streets in Ottawa. This project consisted of an extended site study for the construction of that building following the announcement of the competition winner if the original site was to be used. This was a brief urban design study to consider appropriate massing, exterior spaces, access, and vistas to and from the proposed building. It also included studying the best use of land next to the new gallery. The project is recorded through drawings and textual records dating from 1976-1978. The textual records include the predesign programme and schemes, correspondence, notes, meeting reports and research.

AP075.S1.1979.PR02
Description:
Project series documents Cornelia Hahn Oberlander's landscape project for Victoria General Hospital in Victoria. Oberlander worked in this project between 1979 and 1982. The architectural firm Beinhaker Irwin / Russell Vandiver Architects worked on the project, while Oberlander was in charge of the landscape for the whole hospital site. The intention for the landscape design was to preserve the site major natural features, such as the woodland and meadow, to create an outdoor recreational area for staff and patients and provide views and privacy for some of the hospital units. Oberlander's design included a play area and a treed parking lot to reduce the impact of the parking areas on the rest of the site. The project series contains concept design reports by architectural firm with Oberlander's annotations, design development drawings and working drawings, including grading plans, landscape plans and planting plans. The project is also documented through correspondence, research material, schematic design, specifications for the landscape and the building construction, contract and financial documents.

The published title probably refers to the Parigi Lounge Chair. - Further research is required to determine if the CCA print is the one reproduced in Adjmi and Bertoletto (fig.167, p.198), and Barbieri publications (p.14). The dimensions listed in both publications are close to the sheet dimensions of the CCA print.
