Projet
AP174.S1.2006.D2
Description:
This project file documents unbuilt designs by Testa & Weiser for Strand Tower (2006), a continuation of the Carbon Tower research project. Various iterations of Strand Tower are woven out of carbon fibre according to a pattern algorithmically generated by the Weaver software. “The complexity of the final design is produced by arraying a basic fiber bundle of 114 strands; stacked 70 times for a total of approximately 8,000 strands.”[1] The file contains a large number of digital files which document the conceptual and design development of the project, fabrication of 3D printed physical models, and exhibition of the project at several museums and galleries, including the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles. The file also includes six physical models produced by the 3D printing firm 3D Systems. Sources: [1] "Strand Tower project and credit text" (AP174.S1.2006.D2.007).

Série(s)
AP119.S1
Description:
The series contains drawings for Peter Yeadon's architectural narrative for the Prix de Rome entitled "Karl: An Architerctural Narrative." In total eleven sets of digital prints were made, each set contains eighteen sheets. Canadian Centre for Architecture received the third of these eleven sets, which is included in this series. The narrative depicts the experience of a Canadian emigrant becoming a Roman citizen. The drawings represent the following titles: City; Fabric House; Columbarium; Horizon House; House City; Depth House; Colosseum for Vanishing Curiosities; City Gate; Teatro de Tevere; Neptune House; Bath; and Bricolage House. Each drawing is signed by the architect. Also included, are four sketchbooks for 'Karl: An Architerctural Narrative', two print proofs for Bricolage House, and project documentation. The documentation explains each of the titles in the narrative, Yeadon's curriculum vitae, and leaflets for the exhibition "Karl: an architectural narrative" held at the Art Gallery of Windsor, Ontario from August 2001 to January 2002.
