AP144.S2.D60
Description:
File documents an unsuccessful competition entry, in collaboration with Miles Park, Douglas Smith and Frank Newby, for a mass-produced housing system using steel, for a competition sponsored by the European Coal and Steel Community. Requirements called for rapid assembly/disassembly, and flexible unit plans that could be altered by home owners and appeal to a wide range of owners and their preferences. Schematic sketches include exterior elevations, floor plans, preliminary details, and charts for building components. Conceptual sketches show alternate unit and floor plan arrangements, and include network analysis plans, site maximization plans based on transportability, family breakdown diagrams, alternate internal unit layout plans based on age and other factors, functional area plans indicating separation possibilities, and charts which cross-reference factors such as transportability, construction, and assembly requirements. Design development drawings show typical plans, site plans, sections, elevations, details, axonometric drawings of structure and cladding, internal units, and components. Some material in this file was published in Price, Cedric, "Steel Housing", 'Architectural Design', vol. 37, (May 1967) 244, and Price, Cedric, 'Cedric Price-Works II' (London: Architectural Press, 1984) 36, 49-50, 113. Material in this file was produced between 1965 and 1969. 'High Authority of the European Coal and Steel Community' is the full name of the client as found in the textual records. The title of the competition is 'International Competition for the Design of Industrially Fabricated Dwellings'. File contains conceptual drawings, design development drawings, photographic material, presentation panels, textual records, and model.

Description:
This series contains reproductions of photographs that were taken by Alexandre Alves Costa from 1974 to 1976. The photographs document the Portuguese Revolution and the beginning of the SAAL process. The material gives a sample of events that occurred at the time, such as protests and assemblies, and shows political graffiti and the living and housing conditions of families of Portuguese workers. The SAAL Process exhibition at the CCA displayed these reproductions as a timeline in one of the galleries. The arrangement of this series reflects the arrangement of the timeline. For the exhibition, photographs taken in 1974 to 1976 were selected to illustrate the events, actions and decisions that lead to the SAAL process from the beginning of the Portuguese Revolution to SAAL. Note that the reproductions of photographs documenting SAAL projects used in the exhibition are arranged under their respective project series.

CI005.S1.1925.PR3
Description:
Because of the shortage of social housing for low income families in Rotterdam, the city commissioned the Kiefhoek housing scheme and invited Oud to assist with designing the dwellings. The plans underwent several revisions: it was reduced from the planned construction of 300 buildings in 1925, to 291 dwellings in 1928. The revised complex consisted of two units of shops and dwellings and one dwelling with a hotwater boiler, as well as two warehouses. Oud revised the plans to accommodate 300 dwellings on the chosen site, incorporating existing features, such as the church and public garden, into the site. The site features two symmetric and curved shops facing the central estate street (Taverne et al. 2001, 274-277). Project series includes drawings of plans for site and units as well as photographs of exterior and interior views of Kiefhoek Workers' housing.

CI005.S1.1925.PR3
Description:
Because of the shortage of social housing for low income families in Rotterdam, the city commissioned the Kiefhoek housing scheme and invited Oud to assist with designing the dwellings. The plans underwent several revisions: it was reduced from the planned construction of 300 buildings in 1925, to 291 dwellings in 1928. The revised complex consisted of two units of shops and dwellings and one dwelling with a hotwater boiler, as well as two warehouses. Oud revised the plans to accommodate 300 dwellings on the chosen site, incorporating existing features, such as the church and public garden, into the site. The site features two symmetric and curved shops facing the central estate street (Taverne et al. 2001, 274-277). Project series includes drawings of plans for site and units as well as photographs of exterior and interior views of Kiefhoek Workers' housing.

Victor Adegbite fonds
Numéro de référence:

Description:
This fonds documents the architectural career of Victor Adegbite from around 1949 to 2012. It records his university studies in architecture, teaching career at Howard University, architectural projects in Ghana and the US, his writing, and other personal interests. Beginning in the early 50s, Adegbite’s university studies at Howard University and Centro Interamericano de vivendas (CINVA) in Bogota, Columbia are recorded through drawings, notes, assignments, syllabi, books and ephemera, and some alumni communications from later in his life. His teaching as a professor at Howard University is also evidenced through course assignments, ephemera and course packs. Adegbite’s professional work in both Ghana and the US are also present in the fonds. Adegbite’s work in Ghana with the Tema Development Corporation is well documented in the fonds but the architectural work he completed in Ghana is mostly absent, with the exception of some photos of earlier projects and architectural drawings from projects in the 1980s and 1990s . The Tema materials consist of reports, papers and talks, correspondence, maps and site plans, reference materials on town planning and low-cost housing, ephemera and publications by the corporation. Adegbite’s architectural projects in and around Washington DC are well recorded through drawings. Projects include the Chancery of Ghana, Embassy of Zambia, many residences and housing schemes, restaurants, and storage facilities, among others. The majority of these US projects date from the 1980s and 1990s but a few are from earlier. Adegbite’s writing and professional involvement at conferences are also present in the fonds and there are several manuscripts including one on the development of Tema, a memoir on the development of Accra, and a family memoir by Victor and his wife Jennette. There are also some photos of Victor Adegbite and memorabilia he collected related to his career and accomplishments, as well as personal materials related to hobbies outside of work such as dance, sewing and guitar.

Description:
Series 1, Objectile, 1993 - 2011, relates to the firm’s activities, from the production of decorative panels to the management of daily business. This series includes born-digital material and chiefly dates from 2004-2008. “Objectile” is a term first proposed by philosopher Gilles Deleuze in his book The Fold, published in 1988. It was used to name the research conducted by Bernard Cache and his associate Patrick Beaucé around the development of industrial means to produce “non-standard” objects. In his book Earth Moves (Terre Meuble), Bernard Cache describes non-standard objects as repeatable variations on a theme, such as a family of curves declining the same mathematical model. The randomness of their patterns recalls earth’s forms and curves, the way geography generates nature’s topography. Cache also wanted these folds and curves to express a relationship between the exterior (geography) and the interior (furniture) of architecture. From these ideas, the firm Objectile was founded created to industrially produce and market those non-standard objects mostly taking the form of decorative panels. Those panels and other furniture were among the first objects to be computationally designed with computer-aided design software (CAD) and then industrially built through computer numerical control (CNC). The patterns were designed through unique algorithms that could endlessly be modified and personalized. Materials in this series reflect the work of Objectile. This includes design and execution records for the different wooden panels and other furniture, which are primarily in still image and CAD formats (TopSolid, AutoCAD). There is also a significant body of material for the Objectile website (in HTML and XML formats). The series additionally includes textual documentation reflecting the administration of the firm, including accounting and legal documentation, as well as correspondence. These materials are in typical office formats and include email.
