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:
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.

Description:
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 project series documents a competition entry for an office block and residences called Electra Complex in Meerut, India around 1983. The competition entry proposed a mid-rise office block with decks wrapping the building's exterior, which would connect via ramp to the neighbouring residential block. Both building types would feature shops, walkways and parking at their ground level. The proposal also included the design of a children's park next to the residential complex. This project is recorded through drawings, including a large number of reprographic copies, textual records and a photograph and negatives dating from around 1983. The drawings consist of plans, elevations, sections and perspectives, while the textual records consist of the project proposal report with the accompanying photo and drawings. The negatives are of the architects with presentation materials and reproduced drawings. It does not appear that this project was ever built.

This project series documents modifications to the commercial area of terminal one at the Toronto International Airport in Mississauga, Ontario from 1983-1984. The office identified the project number as 8319. Since the early 1960s, John B. Parkin Associates, and later John C. Parkin's new firm Parkin Architects Planners, had been commissioned by the government Department of Transport Air Services (now Transport Canada) to complete more than a dozen projects at the Toronto International Airport, including terminals one and two. This project consisted of modifications at the departures level of terminal one, including the removal of asbestos and replacement of the duty free and LCBO areas. The project is recorded through reprographic copies of drawings and textual records dating from 1983-1984. The drawings are arranged within the textual materials. The textual records consist of specifications, change orders, site reports, construction documentation and consultancy records.
