Projet
AP164.S1.1999.D10
Description:
The project series documents the competition entry for the mixed-use tower “El Mirador” in the Bay of Algeciras. The firm was invited to submit their design proposal which won second prize. The competition was organised by the Algeciras City Council. The firm identified this project as number 123. “The project attempts to express, with an architectural gesture, the beauty of the geography of Algeciras: the bay, the port, the Rock and the Straits of Gibraltar, the proximity of Ceuta and Africa, the cork-oak forests that surround the town. For this [Abalos & Herreros] propose a building that, from a single body, opens out into two towers from one great public viewing platform. This form has strategic holes giving onto the more notable topographical features, establishing a physical relationship with them, while the section is organized as a gradient of privacy that increases with height. The competition […] proposed a mixed programme in a posture parallel to the great avenue of the harbour of Algeciras. An evanescent building apparently fragile appears to let one being stimulated by the effects of the climate and the atmospheric phenomenons with an appearance changing with the function of the hours of the day or the season. Its layered section attends ascending to the different landscapes of the city: first public space, second the cities skyline and at last the 360° horizon rising above the city.” (ARCH270975) Abalos & Herreros worked with Ángel Jaramillo, Renata Sentkiewicz, Jakob Hense. Documenting this project are conceptual, design development and presentation drawings, cartographic and graphic materials, and competition records.

AP075.S1.2008.PR02
Description:
Project series documents Cornelia Hahn Oberlander's project for the Inuvik School, later known as East Three School, in Inuvik, Northwest Territories. The project consisted in the landscape design and a playground design for the new school replacing the Sir Alexander MacKenzie elementary school and the Samuel Herne Secondary School. Oberlander worked on this project from 2008 to 2012 with architects Pin/Taylor. During her design process, Oberlander consulted the teachers, parents, staff and students on ways to express their culture in the landscape design. She also had to adapt her design to the extreme climate of the region. Oberlander located the play court at the angle of the two buildings of the elementary school and the secondary school, to shelter it from the wind, and allowing small children to play outside. The plant selection was made by "harvesting local site and surrounding area for plant material" [1] and was also inspired by traditional cuisine. The project was completed in 2012. The project series also includes some documents related to a project possibly unrealized of the Jim Koe Park also in Inuvik, near the school. The project series contains design development drawings and working drawings, such as planting plans, irrigation plans, grading plans, landscape sections, and site plans. The drawings also includes sets of building plans used as reference. The project is also documented through correspondence, including with architects, suppliers, and consultants, specifications, scope of work, schematic design and design reports from architectural firm, minutes of meetings, and research material.

Description:
Series 1, Water Flux and Scrambled Flat, 2002-2010, documents the conception and evolution of a project that was originally a farm building and later became a geology and glaciology museum and research center focused on the Swiss Alps. The project was never realized. R&Sie(n) conceptualized Scrambled Flat as an experimental farm. The project goal was to reconcile European Union’s agricultural regulations, imposing a separation between animal and human living, to the community of Évolène traditional way of living, contiguously with animals, benefiting from the resources they offer. As conceived, Scrambled Flat creates an environment where fluidity between the existence of the animals and the humans is materialized. The size of the form is also adapted from a typical local rural house and exploits the heat of the animals and the insulation of the hay. For this project, R&Sie(n) approached the mayor of the community with the design proposition. The mayor then called for a competition, while also changing the program to an ecology museum and research center illustrating the local effects of global warming and the thawing of the Alps. R&Sie(n) won the competition with Water Flux, a reinterpretation of Scrambled Flat. The project was intended to uncover and exorcise the anxieties of ecological disaster, and the principle of flux related to seasonal change and, more broadly, climate change. The firm designed rooms that reproduce the geological and meteorological environment of the high mountains making it visible and experimental, offering refrigerated spaces for art installations and scientific demonstrations. The concept was also to build with the use of new technologies such as digital modelling, point scanning, and computer numerical control (CNC), combined with ancient local knowledge of knocking on trees to decide which specific pines have the best wood for construction. The building is designed to be constructed with local lamellar wood milled by nearby CNC. The resulting parts would be used for the structure, the insulation, the waterproofing and both the interior and exterior finishes. The design includes a grille wrapping the building, reproducing the profile of traditional houses and enclosure and making it possible to hold the snow inside a typo-morphological imprint. Therefore, the transformable envelope of the building reacts to the rhythm of the seasons. In the winter, the structure would appear like a solid cut-out of ice and snow, with cavities similar to those found in glaciers. In the summer, it would resemble piles of stones used in these areas to make borders. A small pool would collect rainwater and supply it to an interior artificial snowmaking system designed for the gallery. Transformation of the water is an integral part of the design. The records contain images of plans, sections, details for the structure of the façade, renderings, plans of the engineered structure, and photographs documenting the conception of the models with the CNC machinery. The Rhino 3D modelling files are also part of the records along with AutoCAD models and a video documenting the process. The records contain two physical models: a smaller polymer model at 1:20 scale representing the whole structure of the building, and a larger 1:1 latch wood fragment representing detail of the structure in its integrality.

Description:
Le collage intitulé " Galerie de la grande architecture canadienne " a été produit dans le contexte de l'exposition " Canada-Trajectoires 1973 " présentée au Musée national d'art moderne de la ville de Paris au cours de l'été 1973. Le collage, appliqué sur papier cartonné, représente une sélection de textes et d'images d'œuvres exposées par Melvin Charney lors de cette exposition. L'objectif de l'exposition "Canada-Trajectoires 1973 " était de réunir des artistes ou des regroupements d'artistes engagés dans des discours critiques et de présenter leur travail non pas tant comme des oeuvres d'art mais plutôt " comme symptômes d'un certain climat ." (1) Selon le catalogue de l'exposition, et les divers comptes rendus qui en ont été fait dans la presse spécialisée, celle-ci était divisée en cinq sections. Quatre de ces sections étaient consacrées à des médiums spécifiques : art céramique, vidéo, peinture et sculpture, cinéma. Une cinquième section présentait des œuvres produites par des collectif d'artistes quelques soit le médium employé: galerie coopérative, coop d'artistes, workshop, banques d'images. C'est dans cette dernière section que Melvin Charney présenta trois projets créé avec l'assistance d'un groupe d'"action photographique", soit un "pavillon d'exposition" réalisé en 1969, une "monument à l'aviation" (1969) et "une galerie de la grande architecture" (1973). Dans un texte de Melvin Charney publié dans le catalogue de l'exposition, ces trois projets furent présentés sous l'intitulé "Quelques monuments nationaux". Le collage incorpore en une première strate collée obliquement par rapport au sens du carton d'œuvre, une image (en partie rognée), un texte manifeste (en partie coupée) et un intitulé. Ces trois éléments de toutes évidences se rapportent à L'ensemble des trois projets présenté par Charney. Sur une seconde strate, collée dans le sens du carton d'œuvres, Charney a collé des textes et des images se rapportant à deux des projets soit "une galerie de la grande architecture" (image et texte 25, 26 31 et 34, et monument à l'aviation, image et texte 50. Le collage est signé et daté en bas à droite. Des indications d'intercalation d'illustration au crayon graphite, - avec la mention "cut line" - détermine à même le carton d'œuvre, une zone regroupant l'ensemble des textes et des images collés. Au dos du collage figure à nouveau la signature de Charney et une numéro d'inventaire renvoyant possiblement à un catalogue constitué par Charney de son œuvre : "MC 1973 ? 02". Ce collage a servi de maquette pour la production d'une affiche publicisant l'exposition, ce qui explique la présence d'indications d'intercalation d'illustrations - une donnée signalant en règle générale que l'œuvre a été produite pour être publiée. (2) Ceci dit on ne sait pas si celle-ci fut effectivement tirée (nous n'en connaissons aucun exemplaire) avant, pendant ou après l'exposition. Cet aspect de l'historique de cette œuvre reste encore au moment où nous écrivons, à éclaircir. On peut établir toutefois avec certitude que cette œuvre, ou l'affiche qui en fut éventuellement tirée, a servi à produire la mise en page d'un article de Melvin Charney publié en avril 1974 dans la revue britannique Architectural Design. Un transparent a sans doute été pris du collage puis envoyé avec l'article de Charney à l'éditeur. Ce dernier a, à son tour, cadré l'image en fonction des indications d'intercalation d'illustrations latérales et supérieure,- on observe que le 3 de 1973 est bel et bien coupé - puis a éliminé les trois quart inférieur pour y placer le texte de l'article. La présence dans l'article publié du nom du musée d'art moderne de la ville de Paris - section arc, et son absence dans le collage est du à une perte.
