Projet
AP178.S1.1997.PR03
Description:
This project series documents the Pavilhão Multiuso in Vigo, Spain. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 83/90. The office assigned the date 1997 to this project. Siza was invited by Manuel Perez, the mayor of Vigo, to propose a design for a multi-purpose building pavilion. The intention of the pavilion was to host music performances, sports events and conferences. The building also included a cafeteria, offices for management, and an underground parking with a capacity for 600 cars. Due to delays in the design process the contract was cancelled by the municipality. Documenting this project are sketches, studies, plans and presentation drawings. Textual materials include project documentation and correspondence. Photographic materials document the models.

Southend Roof
AP144.S2.D85
Description:
File documents an unexecuted design for a suspended inflatable roof over the pedestrian area of High Street in Southend-on-Sea, England, for client David Keddie. Cedric Price and Frank Newby designed a roof system that could respond to adverse weather conditions. The final proposal consists of three inflatable reinforced tubes suspended at intervals from metal posts. The tubes can be staggered irregularly to accommodate variations in the cornice heights and canopies of adjacent buildings. Conceptual sketches show preliminary sections for alternate designs for the roof, and presentation drawings show alternate designs for the roof layout. Other drawings include site plan, street layout plans, and details, including one showing a tensioned pneumatic membrane and connection details to post. Many conceptual sketches and drawings are also included within the textual records. Some material in this file was published in "Southend Roof", 'Architectural Design', October 1972, 596-597, and 'Techniques et Architecture', May-June 1975. Material in this file was produced between 1971 and 1975. File contains conceptual drawings, design development drawings, model, photographic materials, presentation drawings, and textual records.

CP Aviary
AP144.S2.D113
Description:
File documents an unexecuted project for an aviary and laboratory for the Royal Veterinary College, Camden, London, England. The design had to be easily dismantled, transported, and re-erected, since it was possible that there would be a "Stage 2" where the aviary would be moved from its original urban site to a more open rural site. Conceptual sketches illustrate preliminary ideas for the general structure and for. Some sketches are colored with metallic ink to outline structural components. Schematic design drawings illustrate two alternate plans, probably for urban and rural sites. A schematic flow diagram shows the use of research equipment within specified laboratory zones/research modules. Design development drawings show the aviary structure for both the urban and rural site. Isometrics, axonometrics, and perspectives show spatial division and accommodation within the aviary. Duplicate reprographic copies are made from the original drawings; some are annotated with notes. Material in this file was produced between 1978 and 1989, but predominantly between 1981 and 1985. File contains conceptual drawings, design development drawings, reference drawings, other drawings, a model, photographic materials, and textual records.

Projet
AP207.S1.1968.PR02
Description:
This project series documents Pettena's installation entitled "Carabinieri". The installation consisted of sheets of corrugated cardboard and metal stays assembled to created the three-dimensional letters of the word "Carabinieri". The final product measured about ten meters long by two meters high. It was first built in the courtyard of the Palazzo Comunale in Novara in 1968. "The construction, left out in the open, gradually degraded due to the damp and rain" [1] which made it an installation project, as well as a performance. The installation was recreated for the exhibition "Gianni Pettena. About non conscious architecture" in the Galleria Giovanni Bonelli in Milan, in 2017. This project is the first of a series of three other similar projects. The project series contains photographs of the construction of the word "Carabinieri", photographs of the final installation at the Palazzo Comunale in Novara, and one photograph of the installation at the Gallerie Giovanni Bonelli. It also inlcudes drawings, a plan of the installation, and photographs of a later model of the cardboard word. Source: [1] Marco Scotini, editor. Non-conscious architecture: Gianni Pettena, Sternberg Press, 2018, 235 pages. p. 108.

Projet
AP056.S1.1997.PR09
Description:
This project series documents the Sheff Residence at 105 Glen Road in Toronto from 1997-2001. The office identified the project number as 9727. This project consisted of a large home for architect Gerald Sheff and his wife Shanitha Kachan. The work included the demolition of a single-storey dwelling already on the property to create a roughly 7,900 square foot, mixed-level home. This project investigated multiple schemes for the residence, which looked at different room configurations and placements, different building heights, and different levels of finish for certain rooms. Built overlooking a ravine, the house had a stone veneer exterior with accents of wood siding and large glass windows. The home had a maximum height of two-storeys with a basement and included a swimming pool and backyard deck. This residence won the Ontario Association of Architect's Award of Excellence in 2003. The project is recorded through a model and drawings dating from 1996-2000. The majority of the drawings are sketches, but plans, elevations, sections, perspectives and details are included. There are also many drawings of furnishings including closets, benches and custom furniture.
