Projet
AP075.S1.1986.PR08
Description:
Project series documents Cornelia Hahn Oberlander's landscape project for the Russell Residence in Lake Bay, near in Tacoma, Washington, United States. Oberlander worked on this project in 1986-1989 with architect Arthur Erickson. The project consisted in building a new house and garden on the 300 acres family farm, located on a promotery overlooking Puget Sound. The landscape design included the planting of rhododendrons nestled into the woodland along one side of the looped drive leading to a parking area, and an herbs and vegetables garden next to the house, near the dining room. Oberlander created a meadow area at the centre of the loop entrance drive with spring bulbs and summer wildflowers providing interest at all seasons. The project was completed in 1989. The project series contains sketches, design development drawings, including plans of the herbs and vegetables gardens, planting plans and schematic landscape plans, and working drawings, including planting plans, site plans and grading plans. The project is also documented through Oberlander's concept notes, research material, landscape specifications, correspondence with client and architects, and financial documents. The project series also comprises photographs of Cornelia Hahn Oberlander and other visiting the site, and photographs of the construction of the residence and landspace work.

Projet
AP166.S1.1990.PR2
Description:
This file documents the executed project for the Prospecta Toyama '92 Observatory Tower in Imizu, Toyama, Japan. Like the Galaxy Toyama Gymnasium, this project was designed in conjunction with the 1st Japan Expo Toyama in 1992. The 30 x 32 x 32 metre structure, built at the top of a 61,2 metre hill, serves as a platform to observe the surrounding landscape. The centre court is designed and equipped for the creation of a performance with sound, light and fog. The file is chiefly composed of design development and presentation drawings but includes some conceptual drawings and material related to theme development. There are also site plans and information about the 1st Japan Expo Toyama 1992. There is a small amount of correspondence in the form of facsimile transmissions. Working drawings include a set of structural drawings. Presentation material includes a model and bound copies and drafts of proposals. There are some digital prints of computer-generated perspectives, one in the form of a presentation panel. There is also some documentation for the development of the name and logo for the structure. A small album contains photographs of the built work. There is some promotional material for the tower and for the park in which it is situated. There are also clippings from published documents. Material in this file was produced between 1990 and 1993. .
