Projet
McAppy
AP144.S2.D89
Description:
File documents a design programme undertaken for construction company, Sir Robert McAlpine & Sons Ltd., in London, England. The aim was to increase the efficiency of production and improve labour relations by producing enclosures, equipment, material, and information systems that would improve safety, on-site communication, and job satisfaction. Cedric Price's office produced 2 report volumes, a Portable Enclosures Programme (PEP) and used at least one construction site, at Angel Court, as a test site for the proposals. Diagrams and flow charts show preliminary planning and programming design decisions and show the relationship between present and future factors. A flow chart illustrates the scope of the program. Charts and diagrams map the relative time scale of parts of the programme over various development phases. An axonometric and cutaway drawing show the interior construction of a pedestrian walkway. Data showing both the projected and real results of a site test application of McAppy planning and equipment from 1974 to 1975 was collected and presented as a broadside. A large number of original drawings are included within the textual records. Material in this file was produced between 1955 and 1987. Zisman, Bowyer & Partners provided consultation services. File contains design development drawings, model, photographic materials, presentation drawings, and textual records.

Projet
AP056.S1.1991.PR08
Description:
This project series documents an expansion of the Marc Laurent store at 110 Bloor Street West in Toronto in 1989. The office identified the project number as 9109. This project consisted of the expansion of the high-end retail store whose original design was completed prior to the founding of KPMB, by Bruce Kuwabara and Thomas Payne in 1986. The new space was made to accommodate the Hugo Boss Store within the Marc Laurent Store. The store consisted of a street level space connected by stairs to a lower concourse level, with the new store space added at the street level. The new space extended the architectural style already established in earlier phases of the store's development. The new area had granite and honed area stone flooring, aluminum racks and display cases, sandblasted glass display walls, and imbuya veneer change rooms and panel doors. This project is considered Phase 4 of the store's development, with 1 future phase to be completed by KPMB Architects soon after. The project is recorded through drawings dating from 1991-1992. The drawings are mostly originals and include sections, elevations, floor and ceiling plans, details, axonometric studies and perspectives. Also present are drawings of custom furnishings designed for the store such as display cases, racks and counters, and architectural elements such as walls, doors and stairs.
