Projet
AP207.S1.1989.PR02
Description:
The project series documents "Mappe Recinti Itinerari Territori", a rug made of eleven small tapestries hand-woven together. Pettena designed this rug for a special production for "Megalopoli" in 1989. Each of the tapestries represent four subjects: itineraries, territories, maps and enclosures. These subjects "are the means required for the definition of space inside or outside those “magic circles” that are the walls of a city, the beginning of a construction, as the rituals that are performed inside any enclosure take on a unique quality and role, different from whatever lies beyond this boundary." [1] The project series contains a reference photograph and photo montages of the eleven small tapestries forming the rug.

Projet
9A Windsor, Worthing
AP144.S2.D32
Description:
File documents an executed project for a garden pavilion and pool in Worthing, West Sussex, England, for the two children of Mr and Mrs T. L. Blau. The design includes "anti-adult" elements such as the pavilion's low ceiling and a steep, open stair leading to an upper deck. The children assisted with the construction and were given notes concerning the pavilion's long-term maintenance. Untreated cedar boards were used for the pavilion's exterior due to the site's close proximity to the sea. In addition to working drawings, the file contains a site plan of existing conditions, design development sketches of alternative layouts for pavilion, pool and deck areas. Material in this file was produced between 1962 and 1975, but predominantly 1962. File contains working drawings, photographic material, and textual records.

Projet
AP178.S1.1996.PR03
Description:
This project series documents the Cais de embarque para european architects in Salonica, Greece. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 75/90. The office assigned the date 1996 for this project In 1997, Thessaloniki was the host city for the event "Cultural Capital of Europe." An architectural initiative named "Provoking spatial episodes - On the coast" was created to celebrate the relationship between the sea and the city. Several architects were invited to design small piers on the coast. For Siza, the program criteria included the construction of a pier able to receive 250 people, debaring area for catamarans, house ticket dispensers, waiting room, press room and food stall. Documenting this project are sketches, studies, presentation drawings, and project documentation. Slides document the project model.
