Description:
This project series documents the Dome Productions offices and studio in Toronto from 1988-1989. The office identified the project number as 8804. This project consisted of a two-level office and studio area inside Toronto's SkyDome for the production company that was owned by The Sports Network (TSN). The main purpose of this space was to broadcast sports live from the stadium, but offices for producing, accounting, and marketing were also included. The two floors followed the curved shape of the stadium and were connected to one another by staircases. Visitors entered via large, glass doors into the reception area on the lower level, where they could move to the main lounge with its curved cappuccino bar, integrated into the main staircase. The lower level also held equipment rooms, fan rooms, editing areas, storage and offices. The upper level included two announcing booths, video editing suites, production spaces and conference rooms. The walls were composed of painted gypsum board but granite touches throughout stayed true to the concrete look of the stadium. Aluminum, steel, wood and sandblasted glass were also featured heavily throughout. The project is recorded through drawings and photographs dating from 1988-1989. The drawings are mostly originals and include sketches, presentation drawings, plans, details, elevations, sections, axonometric drawings, and structural drawings. The photographs show the finished interiors of the project.

Projet
AP018.S1.1970.PR07
Description:
This project series documents the existing Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO) buildings in Toronto around 1970. The office identified the project number as 70056. This project consisted of creating drawings of the two existing AGO buildings, before the start of construction on the AGO expansion. Beginning in 1969, Parkin’s firm was hired as the head architects for the AGO’s massive expansion program that would span more than a decade. This is one project relating to the expansion of the art gallery. The work for AGO projects was divided into 4 physical areas of the art gallery (A, B, C and D) and the drawings for this project reflect this division. It should be noted that while AGO project contracts were originally given to John B. Parkin Associates, John C. Parkin continued the project under his new firm, Parkin Architects Planners, after parting ways with partner John B. Parkin in 1971. The project is recorded through reprographic copies of area D drawings dating from around 1970.
