Scope and Content

This project series documents a study for the Ontario Housing Corporation in Ontario, Canada in 1972. The office identified the project number as 7302.

This project consisted of a study into prefabricated townhouses, which were to be combined in a row to make up neighbourhoods. A construction system was devised and included all the components of a house such as floor coverings, foundation walls, furnishings, stairs and roofs. The homes ranged in size, but all were three storeys with a private garden and garage.

The project is recorded through original drawings dating from around 1972, including plans, elevations, sections and perspectives.
