Projet
AP143.S4.D12
Description:
This project series documents House IV, an unexecuted project designed for unknown clients in Falls Village, Connecticut. Materials in this file were produced in 1970 and 1971. Documents include fifty-eight conceptual drawings (files: DR1994:0132:001-058) and presentation plans that show the internal organization of the house. Although never realized, House IV was extensively published, particularly as a series of axonometrics showing the transformations of the original cube. Some of the files documenting this are a set of axonometric drawings (DR1994:0132:120-184) and copies mounted on board (DR1994:0132:185-198). Other files, including files of photographic materials, document the layout of these drawings for publication. Also included are studies for exterior and interior elevations and silhouettes painted on mylar (DR1994:0132:214-230). Conceptual drawings and design development drawings include plans, elevations, and axonometrics. Presentation/publication drawings also include plans, elevations, sections, and axonometrics. Also included in this project series is a completed model.

Sheffield Festival
AP144.S2.D61
Description:
File documents an unrealized project for the Sheffield Festival which was organized by the University of Sheffield Union of Students, in Sheffield, England, United Kingdom. An early proposal by Feliks Topolski and Cedric Price called for lightweight and movable gem-shaped enclosures of metal tubing, and fibreglass panels to be illustrated by Topolski. Later proposals involved the participation of Richard Hamilton, Robyn Denny, Bernard Cohen, and Joe Tilson. Material in this file includes conceptual sketches, detail sketches of support system, reprographic copies from original drawings, and photographic views of a model. Some material in this file was published in Price, Cedric, with Peter Murray. 'The Second Instalment in the Cedric Price Supplement Series', 'Architectural Design', vol. 41, (January 1971), 38. Feliks Topolski and Cedric Price also collaborated on a later project (see Topolski/Waterloo AP144.S2.D88). Material in the file was produced between 1964 and 1968. File contains conceptual drawings, photographic materials, and textual records.

AP178.S1.1988.PR07.SS5
Description:
This project subseries documents Bloco B for the reconstruction of Chiado in Lisbon, Portugal. The office's archives identified this project as 58/80. The office assigned the dates 1988-1998 for this project. Bloco B was located between Rua Do Carmo and Calçada Sacramento.
