Project
AP144.S2.D14
Description:
File documents the design for a darkroom and workshop enclosure unit for U.S.T.S. [United States Technical Services?], possibly for a temporary location in Paris, [France?]. The design calls for the use of a prefabricated aluminum scaffolding system. Reference working drawings in the textual records show the Circle-Vision 360 Travelling Show by Walt Disney Productions for which Price's design may have been intended. Material in this file was produced in 1973. Reference drawings (dated 1970) of the air dome, Circle Vision 360 Traveling Show, are by Walt Disney Productions. File contains a working drawing and textual records.

New Westminster Pier
AP144.S2.D106
Description:
File documents a competition entry for a new pier on the Thames in the City of Westminster, London, England. The Westminster pier project consisted of a restaurant with deck and observation tower, a fixed pier or public walkway, a catwalk, various ramps, and a pontoon. Existing conditions drawings and photographs include: a hydrographic plan, site plan, and section of the pier and pier edge; an enlarged contact sheet of photographs of the site and surrounding area; and a photocopy of a photograph of a typical pier boat, possibly used for reference purposes. Conceptual sketches include numerous thumbnail and annotated diagrammatic sketches which explore the functional relationships of the areas encompassed by the project. Design development drawings show sections through river embankments, restaurant and tower structures, walkways, ramps, and catwalks, at high and low tide and at night and during the day. Axonometric drawings show the principal structures, circulation paths, and access and control points. A group of drawings are probably a competition entry set marked by a hole punched in the upper right hand corner. Presentation panels are composed of reproductions of photographs of the existing site with overdrawing and montage which shows Price's project in relationship to the river. Two presentation panels which show the walkway/ramp, pontoon, and restaurant in partial elevation have been coloured with airbrush. Duplicate reprographic copies were made from the original design development drawings, and some are annotated with notes. File also contains clippings about "sub-marine engineering" which are possibly related to this project. Material in this file was produced in 1979. File contains conceptual drawings, presentation drawings, reference drawings, presentation panels, and textual records.

Magnet
AP144.S2.D170
Description:
File documents a project for a series of temporary, moveable structures - "Magnets" - designed to enhance access and transportation options, and/or provide other amenities such as views, information, or safety. Magnets were applied to ten sites in the Greater London area in England, and feasability studies were carried out for sites in Tokyo, Japan. Keiichi Saiki, Price's chief assistant on the project, chose the Tokyo sites and also produced a significant number of the project's conceptual drawings. Material in this file was produced in 1978 and between 1990 and 2001, but predominantly between 1995 and 1996. File contains conceptual drawings, design development drawings, presentation drawings, publication drawings, reference drawings, other drawings, presentation panels, other panels, a presentation model, other models, photographic materials, an artefact, and textual records.

Project
Tone Vale Hospital, Taunton
AP144.S2.D47
Description:
File documents an executed renovation project for the Tone Vale Hospital in Taunton, Somerset, England, United Kingdom. The clients are the South Western Regional Hospital Board and the Tone Vale Group Hospital Management Committee. The renovation includes modifications to the entrance, lobby, and several corridors of the Hospital. Existing conditions drawings, survey drawings, and field notes include a ground plan of the hospital and dimensioned drawings of hospital office furniture and cabinets. Design development and working drawings show alterations to the corridors, the main entrance hall, and porch. Other drawings include: axonometric drawings for the main entrance hall and corridors; perspectives of corridors and proposed alterations, main entrance hall and porch; and interior elevations of new display and notice boards. Detail drawings include an elevation of recessed display areas for the corridor walls, a new freestanding information booth, and lighting reflectors for the corridors. Also included are three sets of annotated reprographic copies which may have been used by consulting engineers for preliminary review and reference purposes (DR1995:0210:061-063); annotated reprographic copies of original design development and working drawings; and a mock-up of details for publication, with dimensions for reduction purposes (DR1995:0210:088). Material in this file was produced between 1962 and 1967. A 1963 invoice by Cedric Price is on Lyster & Grillet letterhead. File contains measured drawings, design development drawings, working drawings, photographic materials, and textual records.

Description:
This drawing entitled "sketch proposals" is apparently a preliminary design proposal for a stage and upper gallery within a building located on Hanover Square, New York. Ground floor and first floor plans and two rough interior axonometric views of the stage and gallery are included. It cannot be determined from the drawing if the design is for the interior of an existing structure. The scope of Price's design responsibilities are also undetermined. The drawing is numbered '07' and is presumably one of at least six other drawings which are not part of the CCA's collections.
