AP194.S1.1997.PR01
Description:
Project records document OCEAN North’s design for their competition entry for the Töölö Football Stadium in Helsinki in 1997. The project was titled Open Arena by OCEAN North. The site for the football stadium was in the Töölö neighbourhood and adjoining the Helsinki Olympic Stadium, located in a park area. OCEAN North’s entry was a building that would integrate with its natural surroundings while being able to accommodate a variety of activities and events. The structure has three topological surfaces that were devised through an iterative process: initial drawings made in Adobe Illustrator, modelling made with form*Z and manually transferred on Plexiglas sections, modifications made on the Plexiglas sections captured back into the CAD drawing, etc. At some point in the design process, the Channelling Systems approach was developed and used to analyze the structure’s dynamic relationship with its surroundings. Records show different stages of the design process and include at least one photograph of the Plexiglas sections referenced above. Digital files are grouped according to their function: Channelling Systems analysis, 2D graft spatial exploration, and plans and sections. There are also libraries of images and textures which may have been used for other drawings and models. Over half of the files are raster or vector images likely created by CAD software. This includes images of renderings. CAD drawings are in the native Microstation format, although one is in form*Z format. Textual records present the project and for the most part are the accompanying documentation for the competition entry, including legends for plans and sections. Timestamps for some of the digital files extend past the date of the competition. It is likely that these dates reflect when files were transferred to the Jaz drive for storage.

Description:
This project series documents the Renovação do Elevador de Santa Justa in Lisbon, Portugal. While the project was held at the office's archives, it was assigned the project number 54/90. The office assigned the date 1994 to this project. The project was for the restoration of the Santa Justa lift, which was originally built at the end of the 19th century in order to give access to the Carmo Square and the Baixa. The renovations included modifications to the information booth and renovations of the mechanical system. Documenting this project are studies, details and working drawings. There are photographs showing the model and the elevator. Textual materials include correspondence, competition documentation, project documentation and technical specifications.

Description:
The Seafront Terrace Housing, or "Strandboulevard" was originally designed by Oud for the property developer, Maatschappij Oostduinen Scheveningen. Oud was originally commissioned to build only for one strip of development. He designed nine three-storey luxury units that could be repeated any number of times. Oud's contemporaries viewed the design as embodying the Dutch artistic movement, De Stijl. The sea-front elevation for the design is cubic. While Oud eventually opted for an unornamented design, his original drawings featured masonry ornaments and panelling (Taverne et al. 2001, 145-148). Project series includes drawings of plans, photographs of drawings, and a photograph of a model.

Description:
This project series documents the Casa Van Middelem-Dupont in Oudenbourg, Belgium. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 61/90. The office assigned the date 1994 to this project. The project files document the repurposing of a 200 year old farmhouse and stables, as well as the addition of new buildings. Siza collaborated with Roberto Cremascoli, Andrea Smaniotto, Ueli Krauss, Daniela Antonucci, and Maurice Custer on the project. The project is divided into a residential unit, a guest house, and an art gallery. The original farmhouse was transformed into an art gallery and the new buildings serve as housing. The housing units located on agricultural land form a U shape around the courtyard. The forms and materials of the new units were selected in order to respect Flemish architectural typologies. The buildings were designed in 1994 and completed in 2001. Documenting this project are studies, design development drawings, working drawings, structural drawings, and technical drawings. Textual material includes project documentation. Photographic material documents the models, construction work, and the built project.
