PH1986:0900.14
Description:
Album PH1986:0900.14 comprises 58 photographs of a private mansion located on square Frère-Orban and on Rue de la Science in Brussels, Belgium, designed by Michel Roux-Spitz. Photographs include 5 elevations of the building (PH1986:0900.14:001-PH1986:0900.14:004 are signed and dated by Michel Roux-Spitz), views of the building site, exterior views of the building, the courtyard, details of the windows and the doors. Interior views showing the staircases, living rooms with bookcases and furniture, fireplaces (one with ornamentation in bas-relief signed by A. Jamiot), several details of bas-relief ornamentations, 2 views of a dining room with a painted scene on walls and views of a hallway with a sculpture are included. Further research may confirm that some of these views are from the Litolff apartment referring to an apartment located on rue de Litolff in Paris, France.

À bas les parcs?
Les parcs sont-ils néfastes ? Ces bouts de terrain et maigres plans d’eau que nous séquestrons répondent à un besoin confus de « nature ». Ils contribuent sans doute à notre bonne santé, mais ne servent-ils pas aussi à excuser nos mauvaises habitudes? Les parcs ne sont pas anodins. Dans les villes, les parcs sont des actifs immobiliers et des « commodités » urbaines(...)

Description:
- This reprographic copy shows designs for seven rectangular and two circular plaster panels for the showrooms in Electric House. Each of the rectangular panels highlights a different aspect of electricity consumption. For example, the upper left panel, titled "ELECTRICITY.IN.THE.CITY"; depicts the London skyline at night. - This work is part of an incomplete group of possibly working reprographic copies for Electric House, Battersea Borough, designed by the borough architect, Henry Hyams. The group also includes some reprographic copies which may have been used for publication purposes. - The style of many of these drawings and reprographic copies by Henry Hyams (DR1988:0332 - DR1988:0414) suggests that they were possibly for periodical illustrations. Hyams contributed articles to the periodicals 'The Builder' and 'The Architect'. Two objects in the CCA collections can be directly linked to an article published prior to 1926 in 'The Architect'; a reprographic copy (DR1988:0357) and a drawing (DR1988:0364) (Who's Who in Architecture, 161).
