Projet
AP178.S1.1980.PR02
Description:
The project series documents Block 121, better known as Bonjour Tristesse. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 2/80. This project was one of several projects Siza submitted to the International Architectural Exhibition Berlin competition (International Bauaustellung, IBA, circa 1979-1987), and was Siza’s first international built project. The IBA was an urban renewal strategy for West Berlin and received submissions from several international architects. The IBA divided West Berlin into two parts: IBA Neubau ('new building'), led by Josef Paul Kleihues and IBA Altbau ('old building') led by Hardt-Walherr Hämer. IBA Nuebau's focus was to build new buildings while IBA Altbau's was to renovate existing buildings. The project site for Block 121 was in the district of Kreuzberg, a district on the eastern side of then West Berlin. Due to low rents, there was an influx of immigrants and students to Kreuzberg in the late 1970s. Bonjour Tristesse would serve as a residential complex for a predominantly Turkish immigrant population. In 1980, Hämer invited Siza to submit an entry for this complex to be built on the east side of Kreuzberg beside the Schlesisches Tor train station. Hämer encouraged the participatory model which Siza had become known for from his work with the Servicio Ambulatorio de Apoio Local (SAAL) in Portugal. This project series is arranged in four subseries: AP178.S1.1980.PR02.SS1, Competition, Block 121 (identified as 2/80); AP178.S1.1980.PR02.SS2, Bonjour Tristesse (identified as 2/80 A); AP178.S1.1980.PR02.SS3, Kita [Kindergarten] (identified as 2/80 B); and AP178.S1.1980.PR02.SS4, Senior Club Anziani [Senior citizens’ clubhouse] (identified as 2/80 C). The office’s archivist assigned the number 2/80 to materials related to the competition phase of this project; letters (A, B, and C) were then assigned to each subsequent portion of the project following the competition. All documentation for this project series, including the project subseries, has been kept together to maintain the order of the office’s arrangement.

Description:
This directory contains a large number of subdirectories containing the working files for O/K Apartment. The files appear to have been copied over at intervals during the project. They show the evolution of the projects and changes that occurred over time; however, this means that there are also a large number of duplicates. Each directory represents the work over a particular time period. Within these directories, the files have three major groupings: First, there are a large number of word processing files which document KOL/MACs interactions with the engineers, contractors, and clients. There is also documentation for construction specifications, meeting minutes, and other various notes. Second, there are a number of CAD files, including wireframe drawings, floorplans, and blueprints, which document the evolving design of the O/K Apartment. These are particularly rich in terms of furniture design. Third, there are a large number of still images showing renderings of the apartment; other various architectural drawings are also present, particularly including wireframe drawings and floorplans exported to raster image formats. Most common file formats: Microsoft Word for Macintosh Document, ClarisWorks Word Processor, Microstation CAD Drawing, Tagged Image File Format.
