Projet
AP018.S1.1962.PR04
Description:
This project series documents the design of the Toronto-Dominion Bank Centre in Toronto in 1962. The office identified the project number as 6266. This project consisted of designs for the now famous modernist building complex, the Toronto-Dominion Centre. The design of the Toronto-Dominion Centre is almost wholly credited to architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. Originally, firms John B. Parkin Associates in joint venture with Bregman + Hamann had designed the Centre, but their designs were criticized and eventually van der Rohe was brought on as the design consulting architect for design, while the other firms still acted as primary architects. This project consisted of early designs for the project. The project is recorded through reprographic copies of floor plans, site plans and elevations dating from 1962-1963.

DR1994:0012
Description:
- These sketch elevations for a Court House and the sketches for conchoidal chairs are apparently unrelated. The court house sketches are for an unidentified project. One of the elevations which shows a wall built along the grade of the hill, is reminiscent of Mountain House which was designed by Mies in 1934 while he was still in Germany. Mountain House also deals with the problem of relating the building to a hillside (see drawings D1994:0006:001-009).

La conception de la place de l’édifice Seagram à New York par Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, terminée en 1958, a amené un questionnement sur ce que pouvait être cet espace ouvert dans la ville. Surélevée de trois marches par rapport au trottoir de Park Avenue, la place représente une oasis de calme, à l’écart du vacarme et de l’agitation de la rue. L’utilisation de la place(...)
