AP018.S1.1968.PR04
Description:
This project series documents the plant expansion program for the IBM plant in North York, Ontario from 1969-1970. The office identified the project number as 68040. This project consisted of proposed expansions to the IBM plant located at 844 Don Mills Road, which was built in 1951 and formerly served as their head office. The expansion program proposed four stages of construction, broken into alphabetized lots to divide the work. The construction was to consist of work on underground utilities, the building of each lot, and changes to the roads surrounding the plant. At the same time, Parkin Architects Planners was building IBM's new headquarters on the same property (see project series AP018.S1.1965.PR03 described in this fonds). The project is recorded through reprographic copies of drawings dating from 1969-1970, which consist of construction drawings and as built drawings.

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.

CI005.S1.1949.PR3
Description:
The Netherlands Congress Centre owed its genesis to architect-town planner, W.M. Dudok, who suggested creating a cultural centre for international conferences. In 1956 an ad hoc committee proposed the creation of a congress centre and invited Oud, in 1956, to design a centre that would incorporate a 3000 seat conference hall as well as other rooms for functions and events. Oud created a detailed design in 1958 that featured a seventeen-storey tower with hotel rooms. Oud amended his plans somewhat, creating an oval-shaped conference hall. In 1960 Oud further revised his design to reduce the main hall seating to 1500, and also designated it for use of theatrical events. Oud died in 1963 before the completion of construction. He was replaced by his son, Hans Oud, until the congress centre was erected in 1969 (Taverne et al. 2001, 544-546). Project series includes plans for the Congress Hall Complex.

The project series documents the competition entry a plan of the Sagüés promenade, located at gates of Ulía park in San Sebastián, Spain. Abalos & Herreros and Renata Sentkiewicz drafted a study and proposal for the plan of the Sagüés promenade, located at gates of Ulía park in San Sebastián, Spain. The firm identified the project as number 165. The architects described their project as “[…] a place where […] [the urban and the natural] landscapes […] meet. Under a green roof a winter beach, thermal installations and the groundfloor [sic] of a hotel are combined. Five towers rise through this roof with different uses: hotel, social housing, and the ‘Gallery of Wonders’ […]. A passageway curls up around them, connecting the towers by an impactant [sic] skywalk […]” (ARCH270975). Documenting the project are conceptual, presentation and design development drawings, correspondence, project descriptions, notes, reports, resumes, and reference, photographic and digital materials.

Description:
This project series documents Minimum Cost Housing Group's post-occupancy study for Aranya Township, India, which was a newly development township completed in 1988 near Indore. Minimum Cost Housing Group initially work on the design of a plot of the township, which was the first one to be built and served as an alternative model to the whole township. The masterplan for the township was created by architect Balkrishna Doshi and the Vastu-Shilpa Foundation in 1981. The other plots started to be planned by and built in 1989. The Minimum Cost Housing Group then returned to Aranya to undertake the post-occupancy survey of the whole site and students from the group kept studying the site up to 2018. The material for this file was produced between 1984 and 2012. The project series contains slides, study drawings of the township and a publication on the post-occupancy study by the McGill group.

Description:
This series documents Pierre du Prey's research and writing on the Ockham Park album held in the collection of the Canadian Centre for Architecture. The album consists of nineteen folios of drawings and manuscripts devoted to proposed alterations to the Jacobean house, Ockham Park, in Surrey, England. The house, built circa 1638, was altered by architect Nicholas Hawksmoor between 1729 and 1730. Du Prey originally began this research in 1979-early 1980s for a publication project. He returned to this research in 2016 on the occasion of Phyllis Lambert's 90th birthday. Pierre du Prey produced a book from this research which he gave to Lambert for her birthday. The series contains materials from Pierre du Prey's early research on the album from 1979 to 1985, as well as the additional research and writing he produced in 2016. Also included are photographic reproductions of drawings and manuscripts in the Ockham Park album, correspondence, notes and manuscript for du Prey's catalogue.
