St. Peter's Home, Woking: Section and details for the new wing, with a section for the door jamb
DR1989:0015:055
Description:
- This work is part of a group of drawings and reprographic copies of drawings for St. Peter's Home, Woking, and St. Peter's Convent, Woking, from the offices of John Loughborough Pearson and Frank Loughborough Pearson (DR1989:0015:011 - DR1989:0015:085 R/V). Composed of contract and working drawings including plans, site plans, sections, and elevations dated between 1881 and 1936, these drawings were sold at auction by the convent along with those for the older institution of St. Peter's Home, Kilburn (DR1989:0015:001 - DR1989:0015:010). Both St. Peter's Home, Kilburn, and St. Peter's Home, Woking were commissioned from John Loughborough Pearson by Benjamin Lancaster. The alterations to the Home at Kilburn were commissioned on behalf of Lancaster's wife, who founded the home and a lay nursing order which ran it. The institution at Woking was founded by Lancaster as a home for incurables in 1882 and dedicated to the memory of his deceased wife (Quiney 67-68, 254-255, and 284). It was probably first known as St. Peter's Home, Woking, not becoming a convent until ca. 1934.

Projet
AP178.S1.1995.PR07
Description:
This project series documents the Renovação e extensão do Museu Stedelijk in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 57/90. The office assigned the date 1995 to this project. At the beginning of the nineties, Rem Koolhaas, Wim Quist, Carel Weeber, and Robert Venturi were invited to propose a design for the extension and renovations of the Stedelijk Museum. Robert Venturi was the architect selected, but the project was suspended in 1993 due to the infeasibility of the program and budget restrictions. The following year, five applicants, including Siza, were asked to present a new design to a committee. In December 1995, Siza was officially announced as the new design architect for the project by the city of Amsterdam. The firm A+D+P was selected as the executive architect. Siza's first proposal was presented in 1998. His master plan included the demolition of the Marmottenhuis, the renovation of the 19th-century patios, and the relocation of the public toilets to the basement in order to create exhibition halls. The master plan also included the construction of three new wings and two underground passages to connect the newer and older buildings. A new wing, located to one side of Sandbergplein, included offices in the basement and on the ground floor as well as exhibition halls on the first floor. A new building surrounding the museum garden included storage space in the basement, a restaurant on the ground floor, and exhibition halls at the first floor. Construction work was projected to start in June 2000, however due to budget restrictions the project was not realized and a new competition was held in 2004. The firm Benthem Crouwel Architects realized the project. Documenting this project are sketches, studies, preliminary drawings, plans, and working drawings. Textual materials include project documentation and correspondence. Photographic materials document the models and project site.

Objectile records
AP169.S1
Description:
Series 1, Objectile, 1993 - 2011, relates to the firm’s activities, from the production of decorative panels to the management of daily business. This series includes born-digital material and chiefly dates from 2004-2008. “Objectile” is a term first proposed by philosopher Gilles Deleuze in his book The Fold, published in 1988. It was used to name the research conducted by Bernard Cache and his associate Patrick Beaucé around the development of industrial means to produce “non-standard” objects. In his book Earth Moves (Terre Meuble), Bernard Cache describes non-standard objects as repeatable variations on a theme, such as a family of curves declining the same mathematical model. The randomness of their patterns recalls earth’s forms and curves, the way geography generates nature’s topography. Cache also wanted these folds and curves to express a relationship between the exterior (geography) and the interior (furniture) of architecture. From these ideas, the firm Objectile was founded created to industrially produce and market those non-standard objects mostly taking the form of decorative panels. Those panels and other furniture were among the first objects to be computationally designed with computer-aided design software (CAD) and then industrially built through computer numerical control (CNC). The patterns were designed through unique algorithms that could endlessly be modified and personalized. Materials in this series reflect the work of Objectile. This includes design and execution records for the different wooden panels and other furniture, which are primarily in still image and CAD formats (TopSolid, AutoCAD). There is also a significant body of material for the Objectile website (in HTML and XML formats). The series additionally includes textual documentation reflecting the administration of the firm, including accounting and legal documentation, as well as correspondence. These materials are in typical office formats and include email.
