Projet
CI005.S1.1919.PR3
Description:
The post-First World War shortage of affordable housing led the city of Rotterdam to initiate low income dwelling developments to alleviate the crisis in housing for working class residents. Oud's involvement with the Rotterdam Housing Authority -- the Rotterdam Woningdienst -- allowed him to use public housing projects as a platform for his ideas about urban development, including this design for a semi-detached dwelling in reinforced concrete. Oud's plans were never realized as Rotterdam only experimented with concrete building projects later, in 1921 (Taverne et al. 2001,191, 210-212). The project series includes Oud's drawings of plans for the Double Worker's Dwelling in Reinforced Concrete.

AP178.S1.1984.PR03
Description:
This project series documents the Duas habitações e duas loja in Schilderswijk, The Hague, The Netherlands. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 31/80. The office assigned the date 1985 to this project. This project was part of the urban renewal program in Schilderswijk for which Siza designed the urban plan for Deelgebied Zone 5 Schilderswijk-West, the Punt en Komma social housing, Plano de Doedijnstraat, and Van der Vennerpark. The project consisted of two houses, two retail/office spaces, and a parking garage situated on Van der Vennestraat. One house was made with red brick, while the other was given a white exterior. The project was realised with project architect Carlos Castenheira in cooperation with Architektengroep Mecanoo. This project was designed in connection with the Van der Vennepark (project series AP178.S1.1985.PR01 in this fonds). The project series contains sketches, studies, plans, elevations and details. Textual documentation includes a letter from Adri Duivesteijn, The Hague alderman responsible for the urban renewal program, letters from Architektengroep Mecanoo (engeneering firm), notes from meetings on construction, and a letter from Castanheira. Documentation regarding the Van der Vennerpark (file AP178.S1.1985.PR01.001 in this fonds) also contains information related to the housing and shopping complex. Also included are photographs of the model, as well as slides of the model, drawings, and the built project. Note that photographs of the built project can also be found among photographic materials for Punt en Komma (file AP178.S1.1984.PR02.SS1.015 in this fonds).
