Description:
Series 1, Design, prototypes, and related documentation, 1996 - 2006, documents the conceptualization, design, and testing of the HypoSurface project. This includes approximately 2,200 digital design files, a three-square metre Hyposurface wall module, 44 prototype pieces, and a small amount of textual documentation. The digital files in this series contain the bulk of the documentation on the conceptualization and design of the Hyposurface project. Much of this material is richly visual, including still and video concept renderings; images, animations, and drawings of related projects like HypoStage, HypoFloor, HypoFlex, and HypoVoxel; and drawings for prototype “squids” (actuators with rubber covering). The digital files also include material that is more textual in nature, particularly the administrative files for the project, a technical dossier, as well as patent documentation (relating to the physical textual documentation).Notably, the digital materials also include interactive software, called the Aegis Simulator, which allows the user to interact with a rendering of the HypoSurface wall, mimicking the wall’s real-life behavior. Digital formats in this series reflect the range of CAD, still image, and textual documentation present. Notably, there are a significant number of CAD formats present, including AutoCAD, 3DM, DIFF, and IGES formats, consisting of almost 400 total files. The physical component of this series contains a functional three-square metre HypoSurface wall module, as well as 44 other assorted prototype pieces. The prototypes include eight surface pieces in both metal and rubber, two sample actuators, and thirty-four smaller, miscellaneous pieces.

AP164.S1.2000.D5
Description:
The project series documents the design of social and elderly housing complexes, office equipment, gardening and landscaping, in the village Es Pil·lari, Palma de Mallorca, Spain. The firm gave iterations of this project the following identification numbers: 129, 157, 166, 167, and 168. Each of these iterations is found within this project series. Abalos & Herreros were invited to participate in a competition organised by the Institut Balear de la Vivienda. They won the first prize. The firm worked with Ángel Jaramillo, Uriel Fogué, Fermina Garrído, Renata Sentkiewicz and Jacob Hense. Documenting this project are conceptual, design development, presentation and working drawings, digital, photographic and reference materials, notes, minutes, correspondence, specifications, presentation documents, reports, studies, and a postcard.

AP144.S2.D100
Description:
File documents Generator, an unexecuted project for the Gilman Paper Company, at the White Oak Plantation, in Yulee, Florida. After an initial investigation Cedric Price proposed a complex that could accommodate company activities, cultural events, and artist residencies and would provide "a menu of items for individual and group demands of space, control, containment and delight. A place to work, create, think, and stare." ('Architectural Review', Jan. 1980, 16). The design called for timber-framed structures with variable infill panels and cladding, along with screens, to be placed on a grid of concrete pads by cranes with the help of computers in response to users' needs. Conceptual, schematic and design development drawings show grid placement, site layout, landscaping, designs for cubes and components, proposed activities, axonometric views, and design notes with sketches. Development sketches, site plans, and charts include site analysis examining future growth, activity charts, shadow study plans, and axonometric details. Drawings of the structures include: plans, elevations, details, and perspective views for cubes, screens, and cladding; shadow studies for cube variations; and axonometric views of cube arrangements. Other drawings include: site plans and sections; landscaping and parking layouts; plans for circulation patterns; drawings for boardwalks; and electrical and drainage plans. Charts study design validity, activities, networks, project feasibility, component life-cycle, and cube and component placement/construction sequencing. Computer generated printouts by John Frazer, et al show perspective views of cubes from various viewpoints. Two sets of annotated reprographic copies show details for a typical cube and the foundation. Presentation and publication materials include: photographs and reprographic copies of design models; coloured reprographic copies of computer parts and facilities; a coloured air-brushed rendering of cubes and screens by "Jeremie '77"; two perspective renderings; and reprographic copies made from published material. Some material in this file was published in 'Building Design', 23 February 1979; 'Building Design', 9 November 1979; 'Architectural Review' (January 1980), 16-17; 'L'Architecture d'Aujourd'hui', December 1980; 'Techniques et Architecture', December 1980; 'Design', January 1981; 'New Scientist', 19 March 1981; 'Schemes: Cedric Price' (ex. cat.; London: Waddington Galleries, 1981); 'Cedric Price-Works II' (London: Architectural Press, 1984), 90, 92-97. Material in this file was produced between 1959 and 1995, but predominantly between 1976 and 1980. Main consultants for Generator in the United Kingdom include Felix J. Samuely & Partners, consulting engineers; Baker, Wilkins and Smith, quantity surveyors; John Frazer, computer modelling and systems; Sandy Brown Associates, acoustic consultants. Main consultants in the United States include Marvin Boutwell; Law Engineering Testing Company as consulting engineers; and WTCA; Robertson Ward Jr., as architects. Computer printouts in group DR1995:0280:538-552 in Generator (AP144.S2.D100) are attributed to John and Julia Frazer, Art and Design Research, Ulster Polytechnic and the Department of Architecture, Liverpool Polytechnic. Some material in group DR1995:0280:567-576 is attributed to Felix J. Samuely & Partners.

Handmade (2012)
AP207.S1.2012.PR08
Description:
The project series documents "Handmade", an installation by Pettena presented at ALT Collection, in Alzano Lombardo, in 2012. The installation consists of covering an entier existing wall of the exhibition space with handmade balls of clay that maintained the size and the imprints of fists that shaped them. The installation is "statement on the importance of the use of natural materials and of the presence of the human being as an actor to connote in whoever uses them a greater and more conscious participation in the gesture and in its production, whether creative or not." [1] The project series contains drawings of the installation and photograph.
