Série(s)
AP082.S1
Description:
The series “Project for a Universal Headquarters Building, Universal City, Los Angeles County, California (1995-1999)” documents an unexecuted project by the Office for Metropolitan Architecture (OMA) and collaborators for a Headquarters Building for Universal Studios at the Universal City site in Los Angeles County, California. The first two years of the design process (1996-1997) are documented by about 500 drawings, over 150 small-scale study models, 105 presentation panels, two flip-books, and a few proposals—including a book illustrating “a day in the life” of the building. Three proposals in the series were produced by OMA or by the engineering firm Ove Arup & Partners at the end of the schematic design phase of the project (March-December 1997). The design development phase of the project (August 1998-July 1999) is documented by a progress report produced for the “50%” stage and project manuals produced for the “60%” and “100%” stages. The series includes a set of reproductions of architectural, structural and mechanical drawings produced at the 100% design development stage together with concept drawings for interiors. Materials produced for a final design development presentation in July 1999 include a book and a large-scale (1:50) presentation model. The series also includes prospectuses and pre-construction proposals from contractors, some graphic design samples, technical reports-- including a ground motion study and a report on wind tunnel tests, and a preliminary furniture budget.

Description:
Series contains miscellaneous artefacts, building material samples, and miscellaneous model parts. Materials include custom-made project name stamps that were used on drawings and documents. Model components included are for Olympia (AP144.S2.D83), with some possibly for Generator (AP144.S2.D100) and Fun Palace (AP144.S2.D46). Some building material samples may also have been intended as components for various models. Other, possibly personal artefacts include a compass, a measuring tape with loupe, and a yo-yo. Also includes commercially pre-packaged scale model pieces. Of interest is a building material sample, possibly for New Aviary (AP144.S2.D31).
