Description:
This project series documents a competition entry for the University of Waterloo Student Centre in Waterloo, Ontario in 1993. The project number assigned by the office is unidentifiable. This project proposed a two-storey building composed of rectangular spaces, a round central rotunda, four courtyards and terraces on the roof and sides. The building's exterior would be clad in split-faced limestone with a copper roof, wood doors and windows, and glazed walls comprising the top floor of the rotunda. Inside the rotunda would be cafe seating and information areas on the main floor and more casual reading and lounging spaces on the second level which were open to below. The main focus of the design was its relationship to the four courtyards, including a central courtyard at the building's centre that had bleachers overlooking it from above. Areas for a gym, bomb shelter and student government were also included. This was not the winning competition entry and the project was eventually realized by Cravit Ortved Architects. The project is recorded through drawings, presentation paintings, an aerial photograph and model dating from around 1993. The drawings are mostly originals of sketches, presentation drawings, plans, elevations and perspectives.

Description:
This project series documents buildings for the Guru Jambheshwar University of Science and Technology in Hisar, India around 2000. The project consisted of the design of many new campus buildings, including the Administrative Block, offices, Health Centre, student and employee hostels, professors' houses and VIP houses, the Teaching Block, cafeteria, library, and University Works buildings. The University, previously known as Punjab Agricultural University, was established in 1995 by the Haryana state government and had a campus that sprawled over 372 acres. By 2007, around 200 acres had been developed with buildings and landscaping. Prakash had previously worked on projects for this campus, formerly known as the Punjab Agricultural University, in the 1960s. This project series contains the records for three buildings: the library, the Health Centre, and the Sports Hall. The library was notable for it's round shape, large entrance arch and domed skylight ceiling. The materials also emphasize the development of a large mural in the library depicting the astrological signs. The Health Centre was a diamond shaped building with an outdoor courtyard at its centre. The Sports Hall was a rectangular building with a trussed roof consisting primarily of an open, multipurpose space. This project is recorded through drawings, photographs of the finished buildings, and textual records dating from 2000-2007. The drawings are largely originals and include plans, sections, elevations, perspectives and details. The textual records consist of correspondence and a brochure on the campus construction program.

Description:
This project series documents the James Stewart Centre for Mathematics at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario from 2000-2003. The office identified the project number as 2000-22. This project consisted of the complete interior renovation of Hamilton Hall, originally built in 1929, for use as a mathematics school at the University. An insulated envelope was added to the historic building in order to preserve its gothic exteriors, which were juxtaposed against new modern and abstract interior spaces. Transparent blue glass was used throughout the four-storey building for walls, ceilings and railings to draw sunlight deep into its interiors. A mix of enclosed rooms and open, interactive spaces were created and slate chalkboards were added throughout the building to inspire spontaneous thought and collaborative work.[1] This project was awarded a Governor General's Medal in Architecture in 2004. The project is recorded through drawings dating from around 2000 to around 2002, which include sketches, plans, elevations, sections, perspectives, details, presentation drawings and digital renderings. A large part of the sketches are drawings for custom furniture. [1]"James Stewart Centre for Mathematics, McMaster University." KPMB.

Description:
Project series documents Cornelia Hahn Oberlander’s landscape project for Campus Commons and Amphitheatre, University of the Cariboo on McGill Road in Kamloops, British Columbia. Oberlander worked on this project in 1991-1993 with architectural firm Downs Archambault & Partners. The landscape design included tree planting for the stairs leading to the amphitheatre and planting around plaza and paved pathways connecting the new campus buildings. The university is now known as the Thompson Rivers University after a merging with the BC Open University in 2005. The project series contains design development drawings, including landscape concept plans, details and planting plans, presentation drawings, including elevations and sections, and working drawings, such as irrigation plans, site plans, planting plans and details. The project is also documented through concept notes by Oberlander, proposals, correspondence with architects and clients, specifications, including landscape specifications, and also photographs of the landscaping.

Project series documents Cornelia Hahn Oberlander's landscape project for the Environmental Science Building and Walter Ward Garden on West Bank Drive at Trent University, in Peterborough, Ontario. Oberlander worked on this project in 1989 with Richard Henriquez Architect and Laszlo Nemeth Associates who won the design competition for the new campus building. The project consists in an environmental garden with native plants and grasses and a landscaped roof linked to the ground level by a ramp covered in earth. The ramp and the green roof were design not for human but to give a refuge to ground hogs displaced by the construction of the building. The Environmental Science Building opened in 1991 while the garden was officially opened in 1992. The project series contains site plans, sketches, design developement drawings, including planting plans, landscape sections and details, working drawings, presentation drawings, including perspective drawings, and presentation panels. The project series also comprises working drawings of the building used as reference by Oberlander. The project is also documents through photographs of the construction of the building and the site work, concept notes by Oberlander, correspondence with clients, architects and consultants, specifications, including landscape specifications, plants selection documents, financial documents, reseach materials, and clippings of articles on the project.

Project series documents Cornelia Hahn Oberlander's work for the renewal of the Museum of Anthropology, at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver. This project series concerns work on the Museum grounds starting from 2005 to the early 2010s. It includes restorations work and consultations for maintenance of the grounds, various additions, including the addition of a plaza and a turnaround (also identified as a bus loop in the fonds documents) or modifications for events held on site. It also includes the installation of the Yosef Wosk Reflecting Pool, a permanent reflecting pond in 2009-2010. The pond was initially included in Oberlander original landscape design of 1975. It has since been temporarly filled in three occasions. The permanent pond was officially opened in 2010. The project series contains predominantly working drawings, such as site plans, landscape plans, planting plans, irrigation plans, and grading plans, and a few design development drawings, such as sketches, studies and details, including for the bus loop and the new plaza. The drawings for this project aslo includes sets of plans of the building used as reference. The project is also documented through textual records, including correspondence with clients, consultants and contractors, meetings notes and minutes, specifications, schematic design report and documentation. The project series also contains photographs, including digital photographs of the interior and exterior of the Museum and of the lanscaping. Source: Herrington, Susan.
