AP018.S1.1978.PR07
Description:
This project series documents a site study for the new National Gallery of Canada in Ottawa, Ontario in 1978. The office identified the project number as 7809. In 1977, Parkin Architects Planners won a limited architectural competition for their design of the new National Gallery of Canada. The selected site for the competition, next to the Ottawa River, was controversial due to its uneven ground and lack of access to main streets in Ottawa. This project consisted of an extended site study for the construction of that building following the announcement of the competition winner if the original site was to be used. This was a brief urban design study to consider appropriate massing, exterior spaces, access, and vistas to and from the proposed building. It also included studying the best use of land next to the new gallery. The project is recorded through drawings and textual records dating from 1976-1978. The textual records include the predesign programme and schemes, correspondence, notes, meeting reports and research.

Description:
This project series documents alterations and additions to the residence of John C. Parkin and his family in North York, Ontario from 1959-1962. The office identified the project number as 5933. The architect's family home, designed by him a few years earlier, was a one-storey, white brick faced bungalow located at 75 The Bridle Path. The home eventually became an acclaimed symbol of a modern dwelling in North America. This project consisted of alterations to the existing house, as well as additions to enlarge the home. The house included a pool and gardens, bedrooms for his children, a study, and maid's quarters, among other rooms. The house has since been demolished. The project is recorded through drawings and textual records dating from 1955-1977. The majority of drawings are originals, which include plans, elevations, and some construction drawings. The textual materials consist of correspondence, construction documentation, variation orders, contract data, tender proposals, and specifications.

Description:
This project series documents the Reconstrução da Igreja Madre de Salemi, the Piazza Alicia and the Recuperação do Plano Cascio in Salemi, Italy. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number [7]/80. The office assigned the dates 1983-1999 for this project. The reconstruction of the mother Church of Salemi, the construction of the Piazza Alicia, and the rehabilitation of Plano Cascio was part of an urban renewal for Salemi. In 1968, an earthquake destroyed the Igreja Madre de Salemi and damaged the area. The church was never rebuilt. In 1982, Roberto Collovà and Siza we're chosen by the Curia of Mazara del Vallo for the reconstruction of the church. Instead of rebuilding it, the architects decided to use the ruins to create something new that would represent the spirit of the church and the memory of the earthquake. Documenting this project are plans, project documentation, and correspondence. Photographic materials document construction work and the model.

Description:
Series documents Cedric Price's projects from his early work in the late 1950s to work dating from the time he founded his own practice in 1960 until 2000. Material includes numerous competition entries, planning and building projects, transportation-related projects, exhibitions, conceptual projects, furniture and interior designs, and monuments, follies, and decorations. Some projects also reflect his teaching, research, lecture and publication activities. Price also worked on several competition juries (see projects Musique, Elephant). Many of Cedric Price's projects in the series are unexecuted. Significant unrealized projects from the 1960s and 1970s include Fun Palace (1961-1974), Potteries Thinkbelt (1963-1967), Oxford Corner House (1965-1966), and Generator (1976-1980). Significant built projects from the same period include the New Aviary (1960-1966), his first major realized project (with Lord Snowdon and Frank Newby), and Inter-Action Centre (1971-1979). Other realized projects include an office building (BTDB Computer, 1968-1973) and restaurant (Blackpool Project, 1971-1975). Planning projects from the 1960s and 1970s include Potteries Thinkbelt, Detroit Think Grid (1969-1971) and Rice University's design charette, Atom (1967). In the 1980s and 1990s, Cedric Price worked on several building proposals including greenhouses (Serre, Serre (2)), museums, galleries, and pavilions (Trafalgar, Pertpavs, Snake), a railway station (Strate (2)), a cultural centre (Tiff), houses (Perthut, Castel), a bus station (Walsall), an aviary (CP Aviary) and office buildings (Domain, Berlin). Planning projects from the same time include parks and cultural complexes, (Parc, South Bank), urban areas, (Strate, Stratton, IFPRI, Haven, Mills), university campuses (Frankfurt, Unibad, Bedford), and rural areas (Stark, Arkage). Transportation-related projects include railways (Strate, Control, Rink), roadways (Stratton) and pedestrian links (Magnet, Halmag, South Bank). Only a few of his projects from that period were executed and those include the renovation projects Congress and SAS 29; a mobile market stall design for Westminster City Council (Westal) for which prototypes were built; a coffee cup design (Crowbar); and building conversion projects Gatard and Juke. Exhibition projects in the series include some devoted to Cedric Price's works (AA Exhibition, Aedes, AFX, Afella), some designed by him (Strike, Food for the Future, Topolski/Waterloo, Ashmole, Mean, AFX), as well as projects designed for exhibition (Citlin, Castel). The series also contains self-financed research and client-less projects, which form a significant part of Cedric Price's practice. Undertaken in anticipation of future clients or new planning needs, they include research into air structures and lightweight enclosures as well as integrated construction and transportation solutions (Trucksafe Air Portable Dock Ahoy), and housing research. South Bank, Magnet, and Duck Land represent a few of the client-less projects. The material in this series documents Cedric Price's work in the United Kingdom, in particular England (the Greater London area, and other areas) and Scotland, Germany, France, Austria, Australia, Japan, the United Arab Emirates, and the United States and other locations such as Canada, Nigeria, and Norway. Major clients include J. Lyons & Co. (Oxford Corner House), David Keddie (Two Tree Island, Southend Roof), Howard Gilman (Generator), British Railways (Strate and Strate (2), and others), the McAlpine family , particularly Alistair McAlpine, and their company Sir Robert McAlpine & Sons Ltd. (McAppy, Perthut, Trafalgar, Pertpavs, Ashmole, Perth, Obeliq, McVance); Établissement Public du Parc de la Villette (Parc, Serre, Serre (2), Musique) and the Canadian Centre for Architecture (IFPRI, Mean). He collaborated with several architects and engineers during the course of his career, his closest association being with engineer Frank Newby and quantity surveyor Douglas Smith. Some of his other collaborators include engineer Max Fordham (Strate (2), Tiff, Berlin), engineering firms Scott Wilson Kirkpatrick and Partners (Stratton, Rink, Control), and Sir Frederick Snow & Partners (South Bank), cybernetician Gordon Pask (Kawasaki/Japnet), architectural firm YRM/Yorke Rosenberg Mardall (Unibad), and architect Richard Rogers (Marman). He also collaborated with members of Archigram on the Trondheim Competition, (1972-1974), and with John and Julia Frazer who provided the computer modelling for Generator. David Price, Cedric Price's brother was the model maker for several projects. The series contains conceptual drawings, design development drawings, reference drawings and maps, presentation drawings (particularly for competitions), and working drawings. A significant amount of textual records are included, especially for projects involving a large amount of research or publicity (Air Structures, Lightweight Enclosures, South Bank, CP Aviary, Stratton), for executed projects, and for the larger unrealized projects like Fun Palace and Generator. Also includes photographic materials of project sites and models. Some models included in the series are made from durable materials (wood, metal, plastic), while others are in-office constructions made out of paper, cardboard and Fome-Cor (TM). Of particular note are the 11 models for Magnet, and a full-size prototype of a market stall for Westal. Series also contains publication layouts, including material for the "Cedric Price Supplement", 'Architectural Design' vols. 40- 42 (1970-1972). Changes in office practice are noted around 1971, evident in the Blackpool Project and later, including the adoption of the metric system, and the creation of working and detail drawings on A4 size paper and filed with textual records (e.g. approximately 300 such drawings are included in the textual records for Blackpool Project). At the same time fewer preamble drawings that relate to site sensing, progress and life-cycle graphs and tables are created for the projects (a common feature from the 1960s), although project progress tables are still used. Of particular interest is material in the Early Work and Miscellaneous Records file (AP144.S2.D1) that relates to office work methods and programmes.
