DR1986:0379-0413
Description:
- This group of drawings and prints for Château de Marcoussis (designed by Charles Rohault de Fleury in 1862-1863), and for later additions to the château by Rohault de Fleury and other architects, is composed mostly of design development and presentation drawings and transfer lithographs - mainly plans and elevations. Three wash drawings and 13 transfer lithographs, some coloured with wash, are for the château as constructed and are mostly dated June 1863 (drawings: DR1986:0380, DR1986:0382, DR1986:0383; transfer lithographs: DR1986:0387 - DR1986:0389, DR1986:0397 - DR1986:0407). Drawings for two unexecuted designs for the château are included: the first is dated 3 May 1862, and possibly 23 May 1862 (DR1986:0379, DR1986:0393, DR1986:394), and the second 15 May 1862 (DR1986:0395 and DR1986:0396). Three untitled drawings may also be designs for Château Marcoussis, although the inscription "1er projet" in conjunction with the later date of April 1863, suggests that they are perhaps for a different unidentified project (DR1986:0390 - DR1986:0392). A proposal for a tower addition by Rohault de Fleury is dated 1 April 1864 (DR1986:0381). This tower also appears on a plan of Château Marcoussis by an unknown hand (DR1986:0408). A land survey for part of the château's park is signed and stamped by the landscape architect, L.L. Le Breton, whose stamp also appears on a drainage plan for the château (DR1986:0409 and DR1986:0397 R). Also included are a proposal for a winter garden for Château Marcoussis designed by Geriche (DR1986:0384), an unattributed project for modifications to the winter garden (DR1986:0385), and plans for an unidentified house (DR1986:0412 and DR1986:0413). Folder DR1986:0386 and mounts DR1986:0410 and DR1986:0411 were acquired with this group. All three objects are inscribed with titles, and those on the mounts indicate the existence of two drawings that were not acquired with the group: "Marcoussis / Mr le Mis de la Baume" (DR1986:0410) and "Escalier au tourelle / (projet) / 1900" (DR1986:0411). The inscribed title which figures on the verso of mount DR1986:0410 indicates that it was at one time used as a folder: "Château de Marcoussis / projets d'agrandissement / et de constructions".

Projet
AP018.S1.1964.PR06
Description:
This project series documents the Warner-Lambert Research Institute of Canada in Sheridan Park, Mississauga, Ontario from 1964-1966. The office identified the project number as 6417. This project consisted of administrative offices, laboratories and animal rooms housed in a 30,000 square foot building. The single-storey building was raised on a 3-foot podium and its exteriors were comprised of white brick with dark solar bronze glazed windows breaking up the façade. The H-shaped building was built with rigorous temperature controls and vermin proof electrical systems. This project is recorded through drawings and a presentation panel dating from 1964 to around 1966. The drawings are all reprographic copies and consist of plans, elevations, sections, details, schedules and structural drawings. The presentation panel shows the completed building.

Description:
Group of 109 Polaroid photographs made by Aldo Rossi with some presented in the exhibition 'Luigi Ghirri - Aldo Rossi. Things Which Are Only Themselves' held at the CCA in 1996. The photographs represent several scenes from Rossi's travels in different countries: building façades, sacred images, billboards, houses from a Shaker village, baroque façades of churches (in Lecce, Italy), shops, street scenes, lakes, ports, showcases and furniture. Rossi's photography shows the interest he shares with photographer Luigi Ghirri in the belief in the autonomous eye of the photographer and in the potential of that eye to reveal something new to the architect. Ghirri sees in Rossi's Polaroids a "concealed passion, the 'secret' images of the architect, [...] puzzles that are solved with the heart". And according to his definition of photography, "a tangle of monuments, lights, thoughts, objects, moments and metaphors forming the landscape we are searching for in our minds... as would the points of an imaginary compass, which indicates a possible direction".
