AP018.S1.1970.PR01
Description:
This project series documents an addition to the IBM headquarters building in North York, Ontario from 1970-1971. The office identified the project number as 70002. This project consisted of an expansion to the north-west corner of the U-shaped building, which was located on top of a ravine at 1150 Eglington Avenue East, on the same property as the IBM plant. The planning for this addition had already commenced when the original building's construction began by Parkin Architects Planners in 1965 (see project series AP018.S1.1965.PR03 described in this fonds). The project is recorded through reprographic copies of drawings dating from 1970, which consist of construction sets of architectural, structural, electrical and mechanical drawings.

DR1970:0003
Description:
This drawing shows an exterior of a residential building. The artist uses color to suggest the materials used in construction; blue-grey for the pitched slate roof, brown for masonry details and architectural sculpture, and red striations for brickwork. This combination of materials was common in early modern France, where a play on color and materiality enlivened the façades of well-known royal edifices including the chateaux of Fontainebleau and Saint-Germain-en-Laye. As with the construction technique that interwove stone with brick, the architectural style depicted in the drawing combines traditional French ideas about building with classicizing elements imported to France via Italian artists and architects as well as through printed translations of Vitruvius’s 'De architectura' and Sebastiano Serlio’s architectural treatise. The inclusion of masonry rustication and the decorative urns that punctuate the roofline suggest a knowledge of classicizing trends in architectural ornament and a familiarity with the œuvre of artists working in the circle of the first and second Écoles de Fontainebleau. The structure’s elongated form suggests a gallery and the organization of the façade borrows the combination of slightly protruding vertical bays and long horizontal registers that characterizes Pierre Lescot’s wing of the Louvre, a project that would have been well-known in court circles in the latter half of the sixteenth century. Similarly, the two winged allegorical figures flanking the central pediment are reminiscent of Jean Goujon’s sculptural additions to the Lescot wing. In the Canadian Centre for Architecture’s drawing both figures hold palms, but the artist omitted any further identifying attributes, perhaps – along with the empty niches – as an invitation for the patron to imagine his or her own thematic program for the project.

Description:
File documents an unsuccessful competition entry, in collaboration with Miles Park, Douglas Smith and Frank Newby, for a mass-produced housing system using steel, for a competition sponsored by the European Coal and Steel Community. Requirements called for rapid assembly/disassembly, and flexible unit plans that could be altered by home owners and appeal to a wide range of owners and their preferences. Schematic sketches include exterior elevations, floor plans, preliminary details, and charts for building components. Conceptual sketches show alternate unit and floor plan arrangements, and include network analysis plans, site maximization plans based on transportability, family breakdown diagrams, alternate internal unit layout plans based on age and other factors, functional area plans indicating separation possibilities, and charts which cross-reference factors such as transportability, construction, and assembly requirements. Design development drawings show typical plans, site plans, sections, elevations, details, axonometric drawings of structure and cladding, internal units, and components. Some material in this file was published in Price, Cedric, "Steel Housing", 'Architectural Design', vol. 37, (May 1967) 244, and Price, Cedric, 'Cedric Price-Works II' (London: Architectural Press, 1984) 36, 49-50, 113. Material in this file was produced between 1965 and 1969. 'High Authority of the European Coal and Steel Community' is the full name of the client as found in the textual records. The title of the competition is 'International Competition for the Design of Industrially Fabricated Dwellings'. File contains conceptual drawings, design development drawings, photographic material, presentation panels, textual records, and model.

Description:
File documents Generator, an unexecuted project for the Gilman Paper Company, at the White Oak Plantation, in Yulee, Florida. After an initial investigation Cedric Price proposed a complex that could accommodate company activities, cultural events, and artist residencies and would provide "a menu of items for individual and group demands of space, control, containment and delight. A place to work, create, think, and stare." ('Architectural Review', Jan. 1980, 16). The design called for timber-framed structures with variable infill panels and cladding, along with screens, to be placed on a grid of concrete pads by cranes with the help of computers in response to users' needs. Conceptual, schematic and design development drawings show grid placement, site layout, landscaping, designs for cubes and components, proposed activities, axonometric views, and design notes with sketches. Development sketches, site plans, and charts include site analysis examining future growth, activity charts, shadow study plans, and axonometric details. Drawings of the structures include: plans, elevations, details, and perspective views for cubes, screens, and cladding; shadow studies for cube variations; and axonometric views of cube arrangements. Other drawings include: site plans and sections; landscaping and parking layouts; plans for circulation patterns; drawings for boardwalks; and electrical and drainage plans. Charts study design validity, activities, networks, project feasibility, component life-cycle, and cube and component placement/construction sequencing. Computer generated printouts by John Frazer, et al show perspective views of cubes from various viewpoints. Two sets of annotated reprographic copies show details for a typical cube and the foundation. Presentation and publication materials include: photographs and reprographic copies of design models; coloured reprographic copies of computer parts and facilities; a coloured air-brushed rendering of cubes and screens by "Jeremie '77"; two perspective renderings; and reprographic copies made from published material. Some material in this file was published in 'Building Design', 23 February 1979; 'Building Design', 9 November 1979; 'Architectural Review' (January 1980), 16-17; 'L'Architecture d'Aujourd'hui', December 1980; 'Techniques et Architecture', December 1980; 'Design', January 1981; 'New Scientist', 19 March 1981; 'Schemes: Cedric Price' (ex. cat.; London: Waddington Galleries, 1981); 'Cedric Price-Works II' (London: Architectural Press, 1984), 90, 92-97. Material in this file was produced between 1959 and 1995, but predominantly between 1976 and 1980. Main consultants for Generator in the United Kingdom include Felix J. Samuely & Partners, consulting engineers; Baker, Wilkins and Smith, quantity surveyors; John Frazer, computer modelling and systems; Sandy Brown Associates, acoustic consultants. Main consultants in the United States include Marvin Boutwell; Law Engineering Testing Company as consulting engineers; and WTCA; Robertson Ward Jr., as architects. Computer printouts in group DR1995:0280:538-552 in Generator (AP144.S2.D100) are attributed to John and Julia Frazer, Art and Design Research, Ulster Polytechnic and the Department of Architecture, Liverpool Polytechnic. Some material in group DR1995:0280:567-576 is attributed to Felix J. Samuely & Partners. File contains conceptual drawings, design, development drawings, presentation drawings, photographic materials, boxes, an artefact, models, and textual records.
