DR1987:0585
Description:
- This drawing for an hexagonal-shaped sign for Wayfarers' Chapel, Palos Verdes, California, is developed within the equilateral parallelogram grid unit of the chapel. The grid unit is inscribed on several orthographic drawings (DR1987:0530) and is described by Lloyd Wright in the architect's statement (DR1987:0869:011:009). This sign could either be for the entrance gate sign or the roadside sign shown on other drawings (eg. DR1987:0625).

PH1997:0061
Description:
- The series "Running Fence 1997" focuses "on the first 14 miles of the border fence that separates the United States and Mexico, beginning at the Pacific Ocean and ending in the Otay Mountains.... [It] analyzes the "idea" of the border and explores its iconography, the border being a subject that is of extreme importance to the public as the world proceeds towards greater globalization. [Geoffrey] James has written of the project: "[The border fence] was built by the US Army Corps of Engineers in 1994, out of recycled metal landing strip - the most visible symbol of what is known as Operation Gatekeeper. Because the steel sheets are placed in the ground so that their ridges run horizontally, a man can hop over the fence with ease; and no Mexican child ever seems to be impeded from retrieving a soccer ball from US territory. The real barrier to illegal immigration from Mexico into the USA is less visible: hundreds of buried sensors linked to a central computer, nightscopes, helicopters and Border Patrol Agents in white Broncos.""

DR1987:0551
Description:
- These drawings are for a time capsule in the wall of Wayfarers' Chapel, Palos Verdes, California. The time capsule is referred to as a "vault" in the inscription on this drawing and in the dedicatory inscription on the cornerstone. The shape and disposition of the inscription plaque is based on the equilateral parallelogram grid unit of the chapel. The grid unit is inscribed on several orthographic drawings (eg. DR1987:0530) and is described by Lloyd Wright in the architect's statement (DR1987:0869:011:009). A small elevation shows the cornerstone in situ.
