Projet
CI005.S1.1931.PR1
Description:
Oud's international reputation was cemented due in part to his work on the Weissenhofsiedlung, in Stuttgart, as well as to the praise of contemporary American art historian, Henry-Russell Hitchcock. Oud was commissioned in 1931 to design a private home for the mother of Oud's American friend, Philip Johnson, although the project was never realized due to the client's financial struggles in the economic Depression. Oud submitted drawings and a model of the design for Mrs H.H. Johnson's home to the Museum of Modern Art's 1932 "Modern Architecture – International Exhibition." Although Oud was generally praised for his exhibition entries, especially photographs of Hoek van Holland, he received little positive attention with his model submission of the House of Mrs H.H. Johnson. Oud began design for the house late in 1931 and designed a large villa with an open, spacious living room and dining room, strategic garden views, and a detached sunroom with a retractable roof (Taverne et al. 2001, 320). Project series includes photographs of the model of House for Mrs H.H. Johnson, as well as drawings of plans for the house.

Maison de Verre (1965, 1969)
AP197.S1.SS1
Description:
Located on 31 Rue St Guillaume in Paris, France, Maison de Verre was designed between 1928 and 1931 by furniture designer and architect Pierre Chareau, architect Bernard Bijvoet, and metal craftsman Louis Dalbet. Although the home was built, no original drawings exist for this project. In 1965, as Hodder Fellow at Princeton University, Kenneth Frampton along with Robert Vickery and Michael Carapetian measured the home and its details. Originally, their intention was that this research lead to a book project, but they later published their work as an article entitled "Maison de Verre" in a 1969 issue of Perspecta. This subseries includes measurement sketches and sixteen axonometric representations on vellum that were produced from this research. Photographs document Maison de Verre and provide various interior and exterior views of the house. Photographs by Michael Carapetian, published in the Perspecta article, “Maison de Verre (1969),” are also included in this subseries. Textual documentation includes drafts of the publication on Maison de Verre, as well as notes, correspondence, and various research files on Paul Nelson, Pierre Chareau, and Maison de Verre.

Projet
AP018.S1.1974.PR15
Description:
This project series documents an addition and renovations to the head office of Upper Lakes Shipping Ltd. in Toronto from 1974-1978. The office identified the project number as 7419. This project consisted of the addition of a third floor to the office building, which was located at 49 Jackes Avenue. The original building included a house with a two-storey office built onto the back of it. This project also included renovations to the existing two floors and basement. The project is recorded through drawings, photographs and textual records dating from 1974-1980. The drawings are largely reprographic copies used for construction, but some original plans, sections, and elevations are also present, including a presentation board. There are also drawings of the original building that were produced by Page & Steele Architects in 1958. The photographs show the original house that is part of the office building. The textual records include correspondence, conference reports, interoffice memos, construction documentation and specifications, contract data and financial records. Box AP018.S1.1974.PR15.010 contains an index to the textual records, which was created by the office.
