Projet
BMI/HQ
AP144.S2.D74
Description:
File documents the unexecuted design for the headquarters of the Birmingham and Midland Institute (BMI), in Birmingham, England. This project is related to the Shantasea Development (AP144.S2.D72) from which Cedric Price resigned as architect to take on the role of architect for BMI, one of the proposed tenants for the Shantasea project. Cedric Price proposed a municipal and regional "nerve centre" to house seminar and study rooms, workshops, galleries, film, television and music studios, a library, a planetarium, and a theatre. A flexible life-cycle plan (expansion, static, contraction) for the building and the activities would allow BMI to expand in the short and medium term, and to shrink in the long term, when it was assumed that many of its roles would be replaced by the UK's Open University plan (Works II, 42). Work on the project came to a stop in 1970 under a new city council (Architectural Design, June 1971, 368). Existing conditions material consists of maps and a survey of Birmingham. Conceptual sketches and drawings include: annotated diagrammatic plans and sections used to develop the building's massing and the horizontal/vertical relationships between functional areas; axonometric views showing the building's general form/functions; plans used for calculating square footage; diagrams showing visual and physical movement through the building; information and movement charts; and flow charts showing the building's organization. Design development drawings consist of graphs showing how functional areas might be used over time. Design development and working drawings include: diagrammatic plans and sections; exploded axonometric views of the functional relationships between areas; exterior axonometric views; sectional perspectives; space allocation plans; circulation drawings; diagrams showing activities throughout the day; furniture equipment schedules; theatre seating and stair studies; and elevations for exterior cladding. Charts show links between activities/actions; activity distribution; activity/capacity; progress of pre-contract work; and the telephone network. File also includes drawings by engineering consultants Felix Samuely and Partners and Zisman, Bowyer and Partners. Presentation material includes: newspaper clippings and text concerning the project; diagrammatic plans, sections, and charts; and a photo collage of the site; and a text by Cedric Price entitled "The Present Position". Some materials in this file were published in "Cedric Price Supplement No. 3", 'Architectural Design', vol. 41, (June 1971), 364-368, and 'Cedric Price-Works II' (London: Architectural Press, 1984), 36, 42. Material in this file was produced between 1967 and 1971. Zisman Bowyer and Partners appear as the mechanical and electrical consulting engineers; Silk and Frazier as the quantity surveyors; and Versa-Serve Ltd as the catering consultants on this project. File contains cartographic materials, conceptual drawings, design development drawings, panels, photographic materials, presentation drawings, presentation panels, publication drawings, technical drawings, and textual records.

Description:
- This album contains four folios of text in Italian concerning the history and architecture of the Museo di fiscia e storia naturale, Florence. The names of the museum's patrons and the parts of the museum have been inserted by a contemporary hand on the lithographs in pen and black ink. The text is followed by ten lithographs, including a perspectival view of the museum, four general plans, two sections, and more detailed sections, plans and elevations of the Tribuna de Galileo designed by Giuseppe Martelli and the Osservatorio Astronomico designed by Gaspero Paoletti. Also included in the album are four manuscripts, all in French: a letter presenting the album to Rohault de Fleury from Vincenzio Antinori, the director of the museum, a transcript of Rohault de Fleury's letters of thanks to Antorini and to the Grand Duke of Tuscany, a note from the Légation de Toscanne in Paris concerning the presentation of the album, and a booklet containing Rohault de Fleury's translation of the album text into French.

Fonds Ross & Macdonald
AP013
Résumé:
The Ross & Macdonald fonds is comprised of documents concerning the work of six successive architectural firms: Ross & MacFarlane (1905-1912), Ross & Macdonald (1913-1944), Ross & Ross (1944-1946), Ross, Patterson, Townsend & Heughan (1946-1950), Ross, Patterson, Townsend & Fish (1950-1958), and Ross, Fish, Duschenes & Barrett (1958-1976). The greatest concentration of work was produced in Montreal where each of the firms maintained their head office, but there were also a large number of works executed in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. The fonds contains 27 884 drawings (24 294 originals plus 3 590 reproductions), 236 photographs, and 18.6 metres of textual documents.
