Project
AP178.S1.1980.PR01
Description:
This project series document the Sede da Companhia Dom in Cologne, Germany. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 1/80. The office assigned the date 1980 to this project. The project files document Siza's design for DOM company headquarter's architectural competition. Fifty architects were selected by a jury to propose a design. The client underlined the importance of having a striking visual impact while also putting emphasis on precision, security, protection and technological advancement. Requirements for the building included enough space for 250 employees and a covered parking lot for 50 vehicles. Siza's proposed design was a cylindrical inclined building with a cylindrical hole through the center. A circulation system with elevators, stairs and ramps inside and outside the office spaces was designed to create a " complex promenade architecturale"[1] . Siza's entry was not selected. Documenting this project are sketches, studies, design development drawings and competition drawings. Textual materials include competiton documentation. Of particular interest in this project series are the first computer drawings and coordinates used by Siza' office. [1] : Peter Testa "Álvaro Siza, " Birkhäuser Verlag, 1996.
