Projet
AP178.S1.1967.PR04
Description:
This project series documents the Casa Manuel Magalhães in Porto, Portugal. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 29/60; in the past the office identified the project as number 119. The office assigned the dates 1967-1971 for this project. The project consisted of a concrete house located on Avenida dos Combatentes in Porto. There was no direct opening to the street and the building was surrounded by a cement wall. Client Manuel Magalhães commissioned the house as a rental home, but became personally involved during the construction and decided to move in with his family. In 2001, Siza designed an intercom for the house. Documenting this project are sketches, studies, plans, elevations, and details. Photographs, negatives, and slides document the site and building work. Textual documentation includes correspondence with the city of Porto, Manuel Magalhães and Fernando Teixeira Rodrigues.

Projet
AP206.S1.1985.PR05
Description:
This project series documents a farm house for Dr. PN Chuttani in the Kishangarh area of Chandigarh, India around 1985. This project consisted of a brick home with two slanted wood truss roofs at different heights. The residence was a single-storey with access to the space under the larger of the two roofs. A second scheme proposed an exterior comprised of rubble. The project is recorded through original drawings of plans, elevations and sections, probably dating from around 1985.

AP075.S1.1968.PR01
Description:
This project series documents Cornelia Hahn Oberlander's landscape project for the playground of the North Shore Neighbourhood House in North Vancouver, British Columbia. Oberlander worked on this project in 1968. The landscape concept was to encourage creative play for toddlers and preschool-age children. In this idea, Oberlander created “a story-high platform only accessible by ladder that provided opportunities for children to test their courage and physical strength.” [1] She also designed seating placed around the base of preserved mature trees to provide social spaces. The playground also included a large sand box, a winding stone-lined pool, and child-size vehicles and play props. Project series contains sketches, design development drawings, including playground general plan and installation details, a presentation drawing, and working drawings, such as play structures installation plans, elevation, sections and details plans for the play structure. The project is also documented through specifications for the projects and photographs of the completed playground. Source: [1] Herrington, Susan.

Description:
- Drawing showing designs for four different types of dormer windows of Fonthill House, Wiltshire. Two windows have triangular pediments, while the others have semi-circular pediments. - One of a group of working drawings for William Burn's October 1849 project for Fonthill House, Wiltshire, a country house designed in the Jacobethan style. This group represents only one of the projects that Burn proposed for Fonthill House; the final project, executed in 1856, was much smaller (Walker, 31, illustrated in Hitchcock, vol. 2, fig. VIII 31). Drawings include plans, elevations, and sections, as well as full-scale drawings of masonry details. Approximately half of the drawings are part of a numbered series from one to twenty-two, while the other drawings, mostly masonry details, were not numbered. These latter drawings are not as carefully finished, and a few are incomplete.
