Description:
This project subseries documents the residential complex Bonjour Tristesse after Siza won the competition for Block 121. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 2/80 A. The office assigned the date 1980 for this project. Among materials for the competition phase are conceptual sketches intermingled with sketches of people, design development drawings including drawings for the model, site plans for the competition site, proposed plans, proposed elevations, and plans for the proposed nursery and school extension. Also included are photographs, negatives, and slides for the competition, and general photographs and negatives of Berlin. Textual documentation includes correspondence from IBA officials, such as Hämer, Kleihues, and Dagmar Tanuschev, as well as letters from Brigitte Cassirer (later Brigitte Fleck). Fleck was responsible for national and international competitions for the Senate of Berlin (1971-1985) and first invited Siza to participate in the IBA competition by entering a design for the Görlitzer Bad swimming pool. Other correspondence included in this project series are letters from Peter Brinkert, Siza’s contact architect in Berlin, in which they discuss the Kita and the Seniors Club Anziani. Furthermore, there is textual documentation from the IBA, as well as historical documentation on the project site and notes.

AP178.S1.1988.PR03
Description:
This project series documents the Centro Galego de Arte Contemporânea in Santiago de Compostela, Spain. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 54/80. The office assigned the date 1988 for this project. This project was commissioned by the Xunta de Galicia for the autonomous community of Galicia in Spain. The building was located near the Galego Pobo Museum and the Convento de Santo Domingo de Bonaval. The museum was approximately 75,000 square feet and divided into two L-shaped structures. The building had four floors and included exhibition halls, a terrace, a cafeteria, administrative spaces, an auditorium, and a library. The exterior was principally made of granite panels. The exhibition spaces were very bright, principally due to the natural light that came from multiple openings in the building as well as the white walls. The floors of the public spaces and exhibition rooms were made of Greek marble. Siza also transformed the Convento de Santo Domingo de Bonaval garden into a public park. The park was understood as an extension of the museum. Documenting this project are sketches, studies, preliminary drawings, plans and working drawings. Textual materials include project documentation and correspondence. Photographic materials document the models, project site and built project.

AP178.S1.1989.PR01
Description:
The project series documents the Habitações em Concepcion Arenal in Cádiz, Spain. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 61/80. The office assigned the date 1989 for this project. The project, located on Calle Concepción Arenal, consisted of two four-storey buildings on adjacent properties interrupted by Calle Botica (referred to as Block A and Block B in the project materials). Above Calle Botica, the two buildings reached toward each other with white visors on their roofs that shaded the street below. The project program described the buildings' use as commercial spaces and dwellings. Both volumes had interior courtyards that allowed natural lighting and cross ventilation for all residences. Towards the street, the buildings' lower façades were made from local stone, in stark contrast to the top façades in white plaster. The interior courtyards were faced in white plaster on all levels. The project is recorded through drawings, photographs, slides and textual records dating from 1988-1992. The drawings include plans, elevations, sections, details, axonometric drawings and sketches, while the slides and photographs mostly show the built project. Textual records include specifications, correspondence, reports on the protection of Cádiz's Old Town, and building programs.
