AP178.S1.1998.PR03
Description:
This project series documents the Edifício Zaida Habitação e Comércio in Granada, Spain. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 98/90. The office assigned the dates 1998-2006 to this project. The project was divided in three components, each represented in the following project subseries: the Zaida building (AP178.S1.1998.PR03.SS1), the Caja Rural de Granada (AP178.S1.1998.PR03.SS2) and the Casa Pátio (AP178.S1.1998.PR03.SS3). The project, realized with local architect Juan Domingo Santos, redeveloped three ajacent parcels of land that faced the Plaza Puerta Real. This included the demolition of the nineteenth century Zaida Hotel that existed on the site and the incorporation of an existing nineteenth century courtyard style home (Casa Pátio). The project was built in two phases, beginning with the Zaida building in phase 1 and continuing with the Casa Pátio in phase 2. The Zaida building was six-storeys with commerical and office spaces on the first three levels and residential dwellings on the upper three. The two bottom floors of the building's exterior were constructed from grey stone, while the top four storeys were white stucco. The bank branch Caja Rural de Granada was located on the ground level of the building. While the architect sought to save and preserve the Casa Pátio, eventually it had to be reinterpretted and attached to the main volume. It was integrated with the main building using the same white stucco exterior.

AP056.S1.1992.PR03
Description:
This project series documents interior design work for Creative Copy and Design in Toronto in 1992. The office identified the project number as 9203. This project consisted of interiors for the high resolution imaging company, Creative Copy and Design, located on the ground floor of King James Place at 145 King Street East. The office was made up of an unfinished ground floor and existing mezzanine at the back, totalling 2630 square feet. The ground floor interiors consisted mainly of the reception area, which was visible from the sidewalk through the office's glass storefront. The reception area was comprised of two long, boomerang-shaped counters, and one rectangular counter behind them, made of wood with plastic laminate tops. The wood was stained to match the corrugated wood wall that ran the length of the room, directly behind the three counters. A large, ellipse-shaped lighting fixture made from fibre glass panels and steel stud framing was a prominent feature above the reception area. Bathrooms and a processing area were located behind the wall, as well as a stair case leading to the mezzanine, which contained work stations and an additional processing area. The program also included electrical and mechanical installation. The project is recorded through drawings and photographs dating from 1992. The drawings consist of sketches, a floor plan, and a set of construction drawings with specifications and schedules. The photographs show the completed project.

Résumé:
The Ulrich Königs Chemnitz Stadium project records, 1995-1996, document the competition entry and design for an innovative stadium in Chemnitz, Germany. The project was a collaboration between Peter Kulka, Ulrich Königs, Cecil Balmond, and Arup Group, Ltd. The design was primarily driven by the theoretical and methodological processes made possible by computer-aided design, rather than aesthetics. The project records have both digital and physical components, which chiefly include renderings, wireframe drawings, digital 3D models, photographs, slides, video, and a booklet.
