[Architectural drawings and other material relating to the IKOY Partnership and its principal partner, Ronald Keenberg] [architectural, technical drawing]

Scope and content:

Show detail Hide detail

Sub-series consists of largely undated analog and digital images of buildings designed by Ronald Keenberg between 1968 and 2003.

Purpose of photographs is never explicitely mentioned but some reasons are obvious. A few sets record the evolution of the progress of construction. These sets may even include photos of a site prior to construction or images of construction problems, however, images of that nature are more likely to be present in the series pertaining to the projects themselves. The majority of sets actually show buildings nearly or fully complete. These sets were often created for the publication of an article or for a submission for an award. There are also photographs that depict architectural drawings, models of buildings or certificates and awards or models of buildings. These were probably used for presentations.

Photographs were largely taken by Ronald Keenberg or unamed IKOY staff but they also include the work of professional photographers Steven Evans, Gerry Kopelow, Simon Scott, Robert Burley, Gordon Cameron and Pierre Soulard.

Duplication is very frequent as some images exist in a negative, transparency or print version and often in a digital version (scans). Very few images were created in an electronic format.
