Description:
Series 3: Construction working files and related correspondence, 1996 – 2015, contains CAD files and related textual records documenting the evolution of the Phaeno Science Centre project over time, particularly during the construction and post-construction phases. Formats represented include chiefly CAD drawings (plotter files, AutoCAD drawings, DXF), as well as text documents (Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, PDF, plain text) and images (JPEG, TIFF). There is also a significant amount of email correspondence (MSG, MBOX). The bulk of the materials dates from 2000 – 2005. The materials in this series chiefly consist of project working files by year from 2002 to 2015 (non-inclusive). These directories primarily consist of plotter files and other construction drawings in CAD formats, both sent and received by ZHA. Alongside the drawings, there is also often a significant body of textual material, including email correspondence, memoranda, meeting minutes, translations, legal documentation, and other administrative material. Taken altogether, the working files provide insight into the construction of the Phaeno Science Centre as it evolved over time. In addition to the working files, there are also a number of other files arranged topically. This includes material for construction permit applications, invoices to the client and contractors, construction schedules and pricing, materials related to consultants, and additional detail drawings. Notably, this series also contains the email archives of Sara Klomps, a project architect for the Phaeno Science Centre from the early 2000s through at least 2015. These materials reflect her work on the project, particularly communication with the client and consultants, as well as the arc of her career at ZHA, where she became associate director in 2014.

Résumé:
The Rohault de Fleury collection documents the work of three generations of French architects, Hubert, his son Charles, and his grandson Georges, spanning from the early 18th to late 19th century. The collection is extremely varied encompassing both private and government commissions and including domestic work, institutional buildings, commercial buildings, urban planning, and student work from both the École des beaux-arts and the École polytechnique, and archaeological studies. Stylistically, the projects incorporate the two dominant contemporary directions in French architecture - functionalism as advocated by Jean-Nicolas-Louis Durand and the classicism of the École des beaux-arts.

AP018.S1.1962.PR05
Description:
This project series documents the construction of the Toronto-Dominion Bank Building in Toronto in1962. The office identified the project number as 6280. This project consisted of a 56 storey, black steel skyscraper that came to exemplify the age of modernist architecture in Toronto through the introduction of the International Style to the older cityscape. The design of the Toronto-Dominion Bank Centre is almost wholly credited to architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. However, John B. Parkin Associates, in joint venture with architecture firm Bregman + Hamann, were the primary architects on the project, with van der Rohe acting as consulting architect. During this era, the Toronto-Dominion Centre included three buildings - two office towers and a single level banking pavilion which was about two-storeys in height. It appears that this project consisted only of the tallest tower, now known as TD Tower, and that the other buildings were completed under different project numbers assigned by the office. The project is recorded through reprographic copies of construction drawings dating from 1966-1968.

Description:
Project series documents Cornelia Hahn Oberlander's project for the new Visitor Centre of VanDusen Botanical Garden in Vancouver, British Columbia. Oberlander worked on this project from 2007 to 2011 with architectural firm Busby Perkins+Will Architects and landscape architecture firm Sharp and Diamond Landscape Architects. The project consisted in building an access to the botanical garden from Oak Street. The building includes a undulating green roof shaped as a native orchid leaf and covered in plants inspired by the Pacific Northwest Coastal grassland. The building entrance is marked by "a single petal raised above the others" [1] while another of the giant roof petal in the back "almost touched the ground, and transported water to Oberlander's rainwater garden." [2] The project series contains design developement drawings such as site plans, planting plans, landscape plans, landscape sections and a few sketches, and also sets of building drawings or older landscape drawings of the garden used as reference. The project is also documented through textual records, including correspondence with architects, consultants and clients, project proposals, documentation on botanical garden or on the VanDusen Botanical Garden, and press articles and clippings about the project. The project series comprises also digital photographs of the completed building. Source: [1] [2] Herrington, Susan.

The building entrance is marked by "a single petal raised above the others" [1] while another of the giant roof petal in the back "almost touched the ground, and transported water to Oberlander's rainwater garden." [2] The project series contains design developement drawings such as site plans, planting plans, landscape plans, landscape sections and a few sketches, and also sets of building drawings or older landscape drawings of the garden used as reference. The project is also documented through textual records, including correspondence with architects, consultants and clients, project proposals, documentation on botanical garden or on the VanDusen Botanical Garden, and press articles and clippings about the project. The project series comprises also digital photographs of the completed building. Source: [1] [2] Herrington, Susan.
