AP151.S1.D10
Description:
The project files documenting the construction of the Wayfarers' Chapel and site are extensive and quite complete. The documentation is more complete for the first two units of construction than for the latter units. Thus, the internal coherence of the papers is more apparent for the earlier development of the project. The most comprehensive record of the development of the Wayfarers' Chapel is contained in the "Supervision Journal" which covers the period from 1947-1971 (files 97a/97b of the "General Files"). It should be noted particularly by researchers using these papers. The research value of the "Supervision Journal" is complemented by a substantial body of general correspondence which documents Lloyd Wright's interaction with the client and with other parties involved with the design or construction of the Chapel (the Palos Verdes Corporation, the Wayfarers Chapel Building and Properties Committee, and Reverends of the Chapel between 1947 and 1960). Further correspondence relates to the publicity for the Chapel between 1951 and 1965. The textual documents are augmented by an extensive array of visual materials, such as drawings, photographs, postcards, newspaper articles and trade catalogues, which are valuable for providing a pictorial record of the Chapel and site from its earliest through to its later development. The "Trade Catalogues and Supplier Ephemera" file (file 98 of the "General Files") contains a record of the products and supplies Lloyd Wright considered or used in the construction of the Wayfarers' Chapel.

Projet
AP075.S1.2009.PR01
Description:
Project series documents Cornelia Hahn Oberlander's project for the new Visitor Centre of VanDusen Botanical Garden in Vancouver, British Columbia. Oberlander worked on this project from 2007 to 2011 with architectural firm Busby Perkins+Will Architects and landscape architecture firm Sharp and Diamond Landscape Architects. The project consisted in building an access to the botanical garden from Oak Street. The building includes a undulating green roof shaped as a native orchid leaf and covered in plants inspired by the Pacific Northwest Coastal grassland. The building entrance is marked by "a single petal raised above the others" [1] while another of the giant roof petal in the back "almost touched the ground, and transported water to Oberlander's rainwater garden." [2] The project series contains design developement drawings such as site plans, planting plans, landscape plans, landscape sections and a few sketches, and also sets of building drawings or older landscape drawings of the garden used as reference. The project is also documented through textual records, including correspondence with architects, consultants and clients, project proposals, documentation on botanical garden or on the VanDusen Botanical Garden, and press articles and clippings about the project. The project series comprises also digital photographs of the completed building. Source: [1] [2] Herrington, Susan.
