Description:
File documents an executed renovation project for the Tone Vale Hospital in Taunton, Somerset, England, United Kingdom. The clients are the South Western Regional Hospital Board and the Tone Vale Group Hospital Management Committee. The renovation includes modifications to the entrance, lobby, and several corridors of the Hospital. Existing conditions drawings, survey drawings, and field notes include a ground plan of the hospital and dimensioned drawings of hospital office furniture and cabinets. Design development and working drawings show alterations to the corridors, the main entrance hall, and porch. Other drawings include: axonometric drawings for the main entrance hall and corridors; perspectives of corridors and proposed alterations, main entrance hall and porch; and interior elevations of new display and notice boards. Detail drawings include an elevation of recessed display areas for the corridor walls, a new freestanding information booth, and lighting reflectors for the corridors. Also included are three sets of annotated reprographic copies which may have been used by consulting engineers for preliminary review and reference purposes (DR1995:0210:061-063); annotated reprographic copies of original design development and working drawings; and a mock-up of details for publication, with dimensions for reduction purposes (DR1995:0210:088). Material in this file was produced between 1962 and 1967. A 1963 invoice by Cedric Price is on Lyster & Grillet letterhead. File contains measured drawings, design development drawings, working drawings, photographic materials, and textual records.

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:
The project series documents the 1980 design entry for Block 11-12 (Kottbusser Damm). While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 3/80. The office assigned the date 1980 for this project. This project was submitted to the International Architectural Exhibition Berlin competition (International Bauaustellung, IBA, circa 1979-1987), an urban renewal strategy for West Berlin, Germany. Siza had previously submitted three other projects to this competition: the Görtlitzer Bad swimming pool, Block 70 and 89 (Fränkelufer residential complex), and Block 121 (Bonjour Tristesse), which was his first built international project. He would later submit design proposals for two other projects: Monument to Gestapo victims Prinz-Albrecht-Palais and the Kulturforum. The design proposal for Block 11-12 was for a residential building on Kottbusserstrasse in Kreuzberg. Documenting the design proposal are drawings, photographs, negatives, slides, and textual documentation. Among the drawings are sketches, studies, elevations, floor plans, and site plans. Photographs and negatives depict the project site and surrounding area; additionally there are slides of drawings and the model. Also included is a work contract from the IBA signed by Siza and IBA official Hardt-Waltherr Hämer, as well as several notes and calculations. Note that textual documentation in this project series includes materials on Block 70 and 89, see AP178.S1.1980.PR03.008. Sketches in this project series may also include sketches related to other Berlin projects, such as Block 70 and 89.

AP018.S1.1972.PR02
Description:
This project series documents a feasibility study for a convention centre in Toronto from 1972-1973. The office identified the project number as 7228. This project consisted of a study to evaluate the feasibility of various downtown sites to build a convention centre, particularly sites close to the CN Tower and Union Station. The project also included the design of the convention centre, establishing realistic project costs and testing the building criteria with governments and committees. The debate on whether the convention centre should be constructed lasted throughout the 1970s and into the 1980s. Parkin Architects Planners also investigated specific sites and refined the design in the late 1970s, under a different project number (see project series AP018.S1.1978.PR05 described in this fonds), and the project was later referred to as the Ontario Congress and Trade Centre. It should be noted that Congress Centre and Convention Centre are used interchangeably in the materials. Eventually, the building contract was given to another architectural firm and today is known as the Metropolitan Toronto Convention Centre. The project is recorded through drawings, presentation boards and textual records dating from around 1972-1977. The drawings consist of plans, elevations, sections, diagrams and sketches, while the textual records include press clippings, project notes, correspondence, the feasibility report, conference reports, and the project proposal. The presentation boards consist of photographs of the project model, site investigation plans, and a painting of the project by Dawson.

It should be noted that Congress Centre and Convention Centre are used interchangeably in the materials. Eventually, the building contract was given to another architectural firm and today is known as the Metropolitan Toronto Convention Centre. The project is recorded through drawings, presentation boards and textual records dating from around 1972-1977. The drawings consist of plans, elevations, sections, diagrams and sketches, while the textual records include press clippings, project notes, correspondence, the feasibility report, conference reports, and the project proposal. The presentation boards consist of photographs of the project model, site investigation plans, and a painting of the project by Dawson.

Description:
This project subseries documents student housing for Victoria University in Toronto from 1987-1992. The office identified the project number as 18723. This project, headed by Bruce Kuwabara, consisted of an 8 floor building, with 57 apartments, designed to house 220 students. Located next to Victoria University, part of the University of Toronto, the housing was comprised of units ranging from 1-4 bedrooms. The L-shaped building was 8,646 square metres in size and had two levels of parking that could hold 155 vehicles. The top storeys of the building were gradually set back at each successive level, creating a pyramid-style top, clad in aluminum panelling. The lower levels had facades of red brick, banded with darker red brick, and intermittent with grey brick in a similar pattern. Limestone banding was also used, as well as limestone panelling around the west entrance which continued skyward to create a limestone chimney. This building is now known as Rowell Jackman Hall. The project is recorded through drawings dating from 1987-1992. These include sketches, elevations, plans, perspectives and isometrics. This project was designed simultaneously with the Victoria University Hotel (see project subseries AP056.S1.1987.PR06.SS1). These two projects have been arranged in two subseries because their project numbers and the site plans and surveys for each project overlap. Some sketches in this project subseries show the Victoria University Hotel building. These two project subseries should be viewed together.

Description:
This project series documents Richmond City Hall in Richmond, British Columbia from 1997-2000. The office identified the project number as 9710, although some project materials also refer to the project number as 9709. This project, headed by Bruce Kuwabara, was a joint venture between Kuwabara Payne McKenna Blumberg Architects and Vancouver-based Hotson Bakker Architects. The project consisted of a new civic space at the corner of Granville Avenue and No 3 Road, built on the grounds of the original city hall, that included a three-component building. These components included the circular Council Chamber at the forefront, an eight-storey administrative tower, and a long, two-storey Meeting House all surrounding a new civic square. The Meeting House connected the interior elements to outdoor spaces, which include a series of courtyards, gardens and water features. [1] The material palette for the building's exterior included an aluminum curtain wall with several types of glass finishes and wood accents. This project is recorded through drawings, photographic materials, paintings, textual records and a project model dating from 1997-1999. The drawings are mostly original sketches, but some plans, elevations, sections, perspectives and details are also included. There are also a number of presentation materials, which include text on the design concept, digital renderings, photographs of the model and paintings.

Description:
This project series documents the Joseph Stauffer Library at Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario from 1990-1994. The office identified the project number as 9011. This project was the winning entry of a national design competition and was completed with Thomas Payne at its head and with the firm Moffat Kinoshita Associates acting as consulting architects. Located at the corner of Alfred and University Streets, the project consisted of a new 200,000 square foot library for the campus. Influenced by the surrounding gothic collegiate buildings, the library's exteriors focused on vertical, upward movement and had rich textures created by limestone, copper flashing and wood window frames and entrance screens. The library's main entrance at the Union Street and University Street corner was a rotunda that featured a fireplace-lined reading room on the second floor. Other reading rooms and a café lined the building's exterior, while the main library stacks were housed in the core of the building. Wood panelling was disbursed amongst the walls to add warmth to the buildings interior. This project also included plans to expand the library in the following decades. This project received a Governor General's Award in Architecture in 1997. This project is recorded through drawings, photographs, presentation paintings and textual records dating from 1990-1994. The drawings are mostly originals and include sketches, presentation drawings, plans, elevations, sections, perspectives, details and axonometric drawings. The photographs show the finished building, while the textual records consist of publicity on the building and the program description.

Description:
This project subseries documents the Parque de Pedras Salgadas, Hotel Avelames, Spa e Casa de Chá in Pedras Salgadas, Portugal. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 50/00. The office assigned the date 2002 to this project. This project consisted of extensive work to the Hotel Avelames, the thermal spa and the Casa de Chà at the Pedras Salgadas Spa and Nature Park. The building program proposed the demolition of the Hotel Avelames due to the deficiency of previous alterations and enlargements to the historic building. A new four-storey hotel was proposed in its place. The thermal spa building was reimagined and modernized with an indoor pool, treatment and relaxation rooms and a sauna. The historic Casa de Chà building was also reimagined and became the Casa de Chà restaurant. Additional work was proposed for other buildings on the property, including the Casas das Freiras, to create tourist villas, but this work was not realized. The project subseries is recorded through drawings, photographic materials, study models and textual records dating from 2002-2010. The drawings are mostly reprographic copies, some with annotations and sketches, of plans, elevations, sections, details, demolition drawings, and structural, mechanical and electrical drawings. The photographic materials primarily consist of printed digital photos that show the site, historic hotel and construction work. The textual records include site reports, building programs, permit documentation, specifications, correspondence, meeting minutes, supplier records, and documentation on structural, mechanical and electrical systems.

This project subseries documents the Parque de Pedras Salgadas, Hotel Avelames, Spa e Casa de Chá in Pedras Salgadas, Portugal. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 50/00. The office assigned the date 2002 to this project. This project consisted of extensive work to the Hotel Avelames, the thermal spa and the Casa de Chà at the Pedras Salgadas Spa and Nature Park. The building program proposed the demolition of the Hotel Avelames due to the deficiency of previous alterations and enlargements to the historic building. A new four-storey hotel was proposed in its place. The thermal spa building was reimagined and modernized with an indoor pool, treatment and relaxation rooms and a sauna. The historic Casa de Chà building was also reimagined and became the Casa de Chà restaurant. Additional work was proposed for other buildings on the property, including the Casas das Freiras, to create tourist villas, but this work was not realized. The project subseries is recorded through drawings, photographic materials, study models and textual records dating from 2002-2010. The drawings are mostly reprographic copies, some with annotations and sketches, of plans, elevations, sections, details, demolition drawings, and structural, mechanical and electrical drawings. The photographic materials primarily consist of printed digital photos that show the site, historic hotel and construction work. The textual records include site reports, building programs, permit documentation, specifications, correspondence, meeting minutes, supplier records, and documentation on structural, mechanical and electrical systems.
