Description:
This project series documents Cornelie Hahn Oberlander's landscape project for the University of British Columbia's Faculty Club, a social club providing accomodation and recreation for members of the Society, in Vancouver. The Faculty Club is located on the northern edge of the University of British Columbia's campus and overlook the Burrard Inlet and the North Shore Mountains. Oberlander worked on this project from 1956-1959 with architect Fred Lasserre and later architect Arthur Erickson in 1963. During the first phase of the construction in 1956, Oberlander designed the parking area, the upper terrace, and garden with a water feature of water cascading into a series of square basins. For the second phase of the design, Oberlander worked with architect Arthur Erickson, who connected the water feature to a larger pool situated next to a new pavilion. In 2008, the Faculty Club was converted into classrooms and Oberlander was hired to revitalise the planting areas around the club. The project series contains sketches for the upper terrace, design development drawings, including landscape plans, grading plans and planting plans, presentation drawings and working drawings, including building plans used for reference. The project series also includes photographs.

DR1962:0006
Description:
- DR1962:0006 shows a perspective view of a portion of a formal garden terrace laid out symmetrically before a three-storey circular structure. The terrace, which is approached on axis by two steps flanked by sculpted river allegories, is centred on a circular basin and backed by a wall surmounted by potted plants, mostly palm trees and pineapple plants; the middle section of the rear wall curves back concentric to the terrace basin. Beyond the terrace wall and on line with the steps and basin rises the circular structure. With its Corinthian peristyle, this structure has the form of an antique circular temple, such as the so-called "Temple of Vesta" at Tivoli (first century B.C.). Unlike such classical models, however, the columns of the peristyle are set on tall rusticated pedestals that flare outward as they descend to the ground, the entablature carries a balustrade topped by a series of sculpted figures, and the whole is crowned by a tall, slender lantern (although no dome is visible). Within the peristyle, the inner wall is opened regularly by two storeys of windows, each with its own frame and pediment. The overall effect of this structure is not dissimilar to that of James Gibb's Radcliffe Camera, Oxford (1739-49). - In the foreground of DR1962:0006 appear two groups of figures: that on the left consisting of two gardeners carrying a potted pineapple plant, and that on the right consisting of a seated woman attended by a man, a woman (the latter shading her mistress with a parasol), and a figure, apparently a physician, who offers the seated woman a bowl of fruit.

Description:
Project series documents Cornelia Hahn Oberlander's landscape design proposal for the Calgary Law Courts, located on the city block between 6th and the 7th Avenue, in Calgary, Alberta. This project was part of a design competition in 2004. Oberlander concept for the landscape consisted in depicting Albert's natural landscape of the Rockies, the foothills, and the prairie. The Rockies were to be recreated with excavation material from the site and would include a water feature spilling in a elongated water basins in the foothills, transforming into the prairie represented by tall grasses. Large lawn and bosque of Aspen trees would represente the City and provides shade and seating areas. The planting plan included the use of low maintenance and indigenous plants. The project also included a green roof on top of the Council Chamber and was planned to allow the reuse of storm water. The project was not realized. The project series contains perspective drawings and site plans showing planters concept, and a complete set of building plans used as reference. The project is also documented throught correspondence, including correspondence with architects, consultants and clients, competition information, competition proposal, including landscape concept proposal by Oberlander, financial documents and photographs of the site.

Two Tree Island
Two Tree Island
Reference number:
AP144.S2.D84
Description:
File documents an unexecuted project for Two Tree Island, the last uninhabited island in the Thames Estuary, in Essex, England. Cedric Price collaborated with Yorke Rosenberg Mardall Architects (YMR) on the project for client David Keddie, to develop a 178-hectare site on the island which encompassed both existing and reclaimed land, some of which was reserved under a trust for nature conservation. Early proposals showed residential areas, commercial, as well as, industrial zones, and facilities for recreation and leisure activities, including a marina. The final design proposed a much smaller residential area and harbour and included larger conservation and marshland areas in response to local concerns. The project was rejected and a portion of Two Tree Island was leased to the Nature Conservancy (NERC). An Appeal and Public Enquiry lodged by the client was subsequently indefinitely postponed. The architects produced several versions of a consultant's report, created a 'logbook' for the project, and published a brochure and promotional material for a public meeting. Existing conditions and reference material in the file includes maps of the area showing locations for a photo survey; Port of Authority of London plans showing water depths at various locations; a drawing of Marine Island, Essex; and a collage of photos of the area mounted on a board. Sketches by Cedric Price show development plans for the island and explore alternate "open" and "closed" configurations for the basin. Sketch sections show established maximum flood heights on the proposed schemes (see sketches in Works II, p. 86). A series of schematic drawings by YMR develop preliminary schemes exploring alternate layouts in relation to the primary basin configuration. A perspective drawing shows a view of the site from the main road to the island. Design development drawings include both original drawings and reprographic copies and include bird's-eye view perspective sketches; diagrams showing "domestic development" and projected "typical patterning"; and diagrammatic plans/charts showing existing and reclaimed areas, compatibility of activities, and degrees of accessibility (see typical diagram in Works II, p. 87). Other design development drawings include standard plans, sections and elevations, as well as site plans, land-use plans for the marina, plans showing alternate layouts for the marina dock, plans showing Thames tidal defences, site sections, and breakwater profiles. Working drawings for the marina by consulting engineers Sir Frederick Snow and Partners include survey plans, detailed sections illustrating the reinforcement and stabilization of the marine bed, and task sequencing diagrams and charts. Publication and presentation material includes photographs of rendered perspectives, over 18 watercolour renderings of Two Tree Island by Cedric Price, and a mock-up for a 13-page brochure or report summarizing the project. Many drawings are also included in the textual records, which also include Cedric Price's diary on the project. Some material in this file was published in 'Cedric Price-Works II' (London: Architectural Press, 1984), 72, 86-87. Material in this file was produced between 1963 and 1989, but predominantly between 1971 and 1974. Cedric Price's office lists the following firms as the main consultants for this project: Felix J. Samuely & Partners and Sir Frederick Snow & Partners, Consulting Engineers; Baker Wilkins & Smith, Quantity Surveyors; Prof. Peter Cowan, Director, Joint Unit for Planning Research; Prof. Peter Willmott, Director Institute of Community Studies; Prof. G. P. Wibberley, Professor of Countryside Planning, University of London; M. A. B. Boddington, Rural Planning Services. One drawing in DR1995:0255:011-021 is attributed to Costain Civil Engineering Ltd. File contains cartographic materials, conceptual drawings, design development drawings, presentation drawings, consultant drawings, model, and textual records.

Project series documents Cornelia Hahn Oberlander's landscape project for the Waterfall Building on West 2nd Avenue, near the entrance of Granville Island, in Vancouver, British Columbia. Oberlander worked on this project in 1998-2001 with architect Arthur Erickson and architectural firm Nick Milkovich Architects, who designed the building. The building consists in five separated structures to accomodate studios spaces as well as split-level residences. It also included a courtyard and roof gardens on all five building structures for which Oberlander was responsible of the design. The courtyard, formed by in the roof of the underground parking space, consists "a simple tapestry of pavers, ground cover, trees and a small reflecting basin [...]." [1] The roofs garden included planting of white roses at the edge of the building and ornemental grass. The rooftops serve as communal patio for the residents and was accesible to the public. The project was completed in 2001. The Waterfall Building was the last project Oberlander realized in collaboration with Arthur Erickson. The project series includes sketches, design development drawings, including planting plans for the courtyard and the rooftops, working drawings, such as landscape plans for the courtyard and planting plans. The drawings in this series also includes drawings of the building used as reference. The project is also documented through research material for the project, specifications, plant lists, correspondence, including correspondence with architects and client, meeting notes, reports, financial document, a promotional poster on the project, and photographs of the landscaping work and plant selection.

Description:
- This album contains mostly design development and presentation drawings - plans, sections and elevations - for three projects: structures for Parc de Clichy, an "entrepôt de vins" with a "guinguette", and a "maison du blanchisseur". Structures proposed for Parc de Clichy include one - or possibly two - washhouses, a sewer, a reservoir and a manège (riding school). There appears to be two alternate designs for the manège and three for the reservoir. The first reservoir design is a simple building with arched entrances and a small balcony (DR1974:0002:009:020 - DR1974:0002:009:025); the second design is more elaborate, consisting of a rectangular building enclosing the reservoir basin and two square two-storey buildings with Ionic columns and quoins (DR1974:0002:009:031 - DR1974:0002:009:035). The first manège design (DR1974:0002:009:011 - DR1974:0002:009:019) consists of an unornamented rectangular building with a central octagonal space. The final proposal for structures at Parc de Clichy in this album (DR1974:0002:009:036 - DR1974:0002:009:049) incorporates both the reservoir and the second design for the manège, one on each side of rue de Lavoir. The reservoir is virtually identical to the first reservoir design, and the manège complements the reservoir in its exterior appearance. Many of the drawings for structures for Parc de Clichy depict the hydraulic systems. Twenty-three drawings for the "entrepôt de vins" include variant designs for site layout and buildings (probably warehouses) and for the adjacent "guinguette" (open air cafe). Parc de Clichy and the "entrepôt de vins" were perhaps at the same location, as indicated by drawings DR1974:0002:009:011, DR1974:0002:009:069 and DR1974:0002:009:078. An unidentified building on site plans for the "entrepôt de vins" is similar in plan and siting to the first manège design for Parc de Clichy. The relationship of the five variant designs for a "maison du blanchisseur" to the other projects in this album is unclear. All of the buildings in the album were intended to be finished in stone or a combination of stone, brick and/or tiles.

Parc de Clichy and the "entrepôt de vins" were perhaps at the same location, as indicated by drawings DR1974:0002:009:011, DR1974:0002:009:069 and DR1974:0002:009:078. An unidentified building on site plans for the "entrepôt de vins" is similar in plan and siting to the first manège design for Parc de Clichy. The relationship of the five variant designs for a "maison du blanchisseur" to the other projects in this album is unclear. All of the buildings in the album were intended to be finished in stone or a combination of stone, brick and/or tiles.

Description:
- This album contains mostly design development and presentation drawings - plans, sections and elevations - for three projects: structures for Parc de Clichy, an "entrepôt de vins" with a "guinguette", and a "maison du blanchisseur". Structures proposed for Parc de Clichy include one - or possibly two - washhouses, a sewer, a reservoir and a manège (riding school). There appears to be two alternate designs for the manège and three for the reservoir. The first reservoir design is a simple building with arched entrances and a small balcony (DR1974:0002:009:020 - DR1974:0002:009:025); the second design is more elaborate, consisting of a rectangular building enclosing the reservoir basin and two square two-storey buildings with Ionic columns and quoins (DR1974:0002:009:031 - DR1974:0002:009:035). The first manège design (DR1974:0002:009:011 - DR1974:0002:009:019) consists of an unornamented rectangular building with a central octagonal space. The final proposal for structures at Parc de Clichy in this album (DR1974:0002:009:036 - DR1974:0002:009:049) incorporates both the reservoir and the second design for the manège, one on each side of rue de Lavoir. The reservoir is virtually identical to the first reservoir design, and the manège complements the reservoir in its exterior appearance. Many of the drawings for structures for Parc de Clichy depict the hydraulic systems. Twenty-three drawings for the "entrepôt de vins" include variant designs for site layout and buildings (probably warehouses) and for the adjacent "guinguette" (open air cafe). Parc de Clichy and the "entrepôt de vins" were perhaps at the same location, as indicated by drawings DR1974:0002:009:011, DR1974:0002:009:069 and DR1974:0002:009:078. An unidentified building on site plans for the "entrepôt de vins" is similar in plan and siting to the first manège design for Parc de Clichy. The relationship of the five variant designs for a "maison du blanchisseur" to the other projects in this album is unclear. All of the buildings in the album were intended to be finished in stone or a combination of stone, brick and/or tiles.
