Fonds Ábalos & Herreros

Résumé:
The Ábalos&Herreros fonds documents the activities of the architectural firm Ábalos&Herreros, founded by architects Iñaki Ábalos and Juan Herreros. The archive primarily consists of drawings, photographic materials and textual documentation, and covers the existance of the firm from 1985 to 2008. The concentration of the firm's work was produced in the city of Madrid and the Community of Madrid where the firm maintained its head office. However, the archive also documents projects for other Spanish autonomous communities as well as for other countries such as Portugal, Germany, the United States, and Brazil.

Description:
La sous-série documente les projets architecturaux et d'urbanisme de Pierre Jeanneret et autres architectes en Europe durant les années 1940 jusqu'à la première moitié des années 1960. La sous-série inclut certains projets réalisés avec la Bureau Central de Construction, en Suisse, ainsi que ses projets indivuels dont le Centre d'apprentissage de Béziers, en France. Le matériel dans cette sous-série a probablement été produit entre 1940 et 1963. La sous-série contient des dessins, principalement des reprographies, donc des études, des dessins conceptuels, des dessins de développement du design, des dessins d'exécution et des dessins de présentation. La sous-série contient aussi des épreuves photomécaniques, une photographie et quelques chemises utilisées par Pierre Jeanneret pour classer ses dossiers de projets. Sub-series documents architectural and urban planning projects of Pierre Jeanneret and other architects in Europe in the 1940s to the first half of the 1960s. The sub-series includes some projects completed with the Bureau Central de la Construction, in Switzerland, and his individual projets including the Centre d'apprentissage in Béziers, France. The material in this sub-series was probably produced between 1940 to 1963. The sub-series contains drawings, predominantly reprographic copies, such as studies, conceptual drawings, design developement drawings, working drawings and presentation drawings. The sub-series also contains photomechanial prints, a photograph and some folder used by Pierre Jeanneret to organized his projects' files.

Résumé:
The Jean-Louis Cohen fonds, 1968 – 2023, documents the projects and activities of historian, curator, professor, and architect Jean-Louis Cohen (1949 – 2023). Cohen’s research focus was largely modern architecture and transnational architectural exchange, particularly between and among the United States, Europe, and the former Soviet Union in the 20th century. Through physical and digital records, this fonds documents his academic, publishing, and curatorial work along with his professional activities within architectural research and heritage organizations, as well as his architectural practice.

views of schematic, design development, presentation, and publication drawings; many of the views of schematic, design development, and presentation drawings show drawings that are not otherwise present in the project documents; the views of schematic, design development, and presentation drawings show different schemes for site layouts, and for types and juxtaposition of dwellings; some of these drawings were possibly redrawn for presentation or publication purposes; there are views of an incomplete set of numbered presentation drawings for floor plans and a section, inscribed with the date 1969, which are not otherwise present in the project documents; there are views of drawings for a reurbanisation project for the Southgate Housing project by Rodrigo Perez de Arce, which was exhibited and published in the early 1980s; some of these views were also used to illustrate Stirling's published Southgate project; there are also views of the building site and of the exterior of the completed buildings; there is one colour negative with an exterior view of the completed buildings; there are also views of freehand site plans of urban architecture, including the Royal Crescent in Bath, England

AP198.S1.1997.PR02
Description:
Project records document the design process for OCEAN North’s competition entry for the Jyväskylä Music and Arts Centre in 1997. The project was titled Terra Cultura by OCEAN North. The international competition called to create a multi-usage space that would include a venue for the symphonic orchestra, a music school, exhibition spaces, and the possibility to host a variety of small cultural events in the Finnish city of Jyväskylä. The proposed site is in the center of the town, across the street from the Jyväskylä city church and its park, and nearby buildings designed by Alvar Aalto. OCEAN North’s concept presents a topological surface as an extension of the surrounding urban scape with two masses that would host the formal functions of the building (concert hall, music school, exhibition halls). The two volumes, or raised blocks, are divided along a diagonal elevated space, which is the extension of the ground’s topological surface filled and dubbed “Liquid Flow Space” by the design team. In their interview with Greg Lynn, Johan Bettum and Kivi Sotamaa mentioned that the idea for Jyväskylä was that it was a cloud. Digital files, in particular, show the process to achieve the projected design. Drawings provide views of streamed particles and of resulting peels. They also include plans, elevations and axonometric views of the structure. Most files are raster or vector images, likely saved from CAD software. A few files are in CAD formats such as Microstation, 3D Studio and form*Z. Digital files also present sine wave analysis and resulting charts for each component of the program. The analysis and charts present the relationships between various components of the building’s program such as the Art Museum, the Concert Halls, the technical space, and the Common facilities. These files are raster images and spreadsheets. Photographs of the site in Jyväskylä and of models built by OCEAN North were digitized and are included with the digital working files. Physical drawings are chiefly floor plans for the building, but also include sections and sketches. Finally, project files include photographic prints of two built models. One of these models, a small model of the conceptual masses of the building structure, is itself in the archive. Photographs show the model in the context of a city scape model. The second model, not part of the archive at CCA, was built at a bigger scale and was an intricate cardboard and wooden stick structure.
