Description:
This project series documents the design for a play area on18th and Bigler Streets in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This was Oberlander's first solo project which she worked on from 1951 to 1954, while still working for Oscar Stonorov. The playground opened in September 1954. The northeast section of the playground was dedicated to adults and older children, with places to sit and spaces for basketball, badminton, bocce and, a horseshoe pit. The southeast quarter was dedicated to smaller children, with play sculptures, water play and, a sand pit. The project series contains design development drawings, such as landscape plans and site plans with details, working drawings and technical drawings. It also comprises a presentation panel showing the completed playground and the play sculptures, and photographs of the playground. The project is also documented through textual records, such as a folder of correspondence, a project submission, press clippings and copies of articles on the play area. Source: Herrington, Susan.

Description:
Project series documents Cornelia Hahn Oberlander's landscape project for Acadia Park at the University of British Columbia, in Vancouver, British Columbia. Oberlander worked on this project in 1969. The project consisted in design the landscape master plan and the play area for the Acadia Married Student Housing complex, which included in kindergarten. Oberlander preserved the forest edge of the site and even included some of the mature trees present on the site by suspending rope swings to their trunks. The play area also reused ancient trees as play structures, and a wobble walk made of logs ends of various heights. The project series contains design development drawings, including a proposed landscape master plan and landscape plans, and also working drawings, such as elevations and details of the playground structures and benches. The project is also documented through photographs of the playground and correspondence with clients. Source: [1] Herrington, Susan.

AP075.S1.1989.PR04
Description:
Project series documents Cornelia Hahn Oberlander's landscape project for Ottawa City Hall, located on Sussex Drive, on Green Island, surrounded by Ottawa and Rideau Rivers, in Ottawa, Ontario. Oberlander worked on this project in 1989-1994 with architect Moshe Safdie. The old City Hall, a heritage building, was retained, and the new landscape design had to include the old structures. Oberlander landscape concept was to create a park-like space used for strolling as well as public functions. She also designed a courtyard with water features, including a pool, trees and flowers. The project also included a play area for the day care centre of the City Hall. The project was completed in 1994. The project series comprises sketches, design development drawings, such as grading plans, landscape plans, sections, elevations and details for the play area, working drawings, including site grading plans, and presentation drawings. The project is also documented through concept notes by Oberlander, specifications, correspondence, including with architects, clients, and consultants, financial documents and photographs of the construction.

AP198.S2
Description:
Series consists of reference documentation in the form of portfolios of selected materials from various OCEAN North projects. It is likely that Kivi Sotamaa did not contribute to all of the included projects. For the most part, records are images of work done with CAD software: preliminary drawings; fully developed plans and renderings of buildings; landscapes; and installations. Images also include digitized photographs of models and installations. Content from AP198.S2.001 – OCEAN North Portfolio 1999 consists primarily of this type of visual material and is organized per project. Additionally, a few textual records describe some of the projects. There are two versions of a general presentation document in Pagemaker. Content from AP198.S2.002 – OCEAN North Press CD 2000 is organized into three sections: “about'OCEANnorth”, “OCEANnorth_Essays”, and “OCEANnorth_Projects”. This last directory is further organized by year and by project, each project having a text and an image sub-directory. Overall, there are 48 textual records describing the network, its vision and its projects, alongside more than 200 raster images. The Jyväskylä Music and Arts Centre competition entry was not included in this project selection. The following projects are documented in this series: - Töölö Football Stadium, an international architectural competition entry. See also Series 1 for more records on this project. - Jyväskylä Music and Arts Centre, an international architectural competition entry. See also Series 1 for more records on this project. - Extraterrains, a furniture design project. - Finnish Embassy in Canberra, an international architectural competition entry. - Habitare Pavilion (1996 and 1997), exhibitions installations. - Chamberworks, an architectural installation for an exhibition. - a-drift NYT Time Capsule, a competition entry for a time capsule for the New York Times. - Synthetic Landscape Pavilion and Phases 1, 2 and 3, a landscape design. - Sandefjord Hotel, preliminary design. - Landscraper, design study for an exhibition. - IntenCities, multidisciplinary installation project. - Barbican’s Valo exhibition design. - Constantini (sic) Museum, a building design for a competition. - Kyoto, a study of urban design. - Jeil’s Hospital, a building design. - Urban Surfaces exhibition.

Description:
- This drawing was traced from the plans similar to the photomechanical prints, DR1989:0015:049 - DR1989:0015:050, which are dated December 1925. - This work is part of a group of drawings and reprographic prints 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.
