[2018.0077] RECORDS OF YUNCKEN FREEMAN ARCHITECTS PTY LTD AND PREDECESSORS: PROJECTS BY JOB NUMBER

Description

IdentifierUMA-ACE-20180077Extent416 rolls of drawings102 sleeves150 boxesLinear Meteragenot specifiedScope and ContentArchitectural drawings and related documentation for projects by the firm established as Yuncken, Freeman Brothers, Griffiths and Simpson and later known as Yuncken Freeman Architects (YFA). Most projects are identified by a number assigned by the firm, and entered into the database as YFA job 'N'. Information about drawings includes, address, client, project name and type of project (residential, commercial, etc) as well as the media used when creating the drawings. It is uncommon to find an architect's name on drawings, but this may be found in related documentation.
Documentation about YFA projects is controlled by YFA job number and project name, but has not been listed in detail. The quantity and complexity of these files varies, but may contain additional drawings and architect's notes, correspondence with clients, state and local authorities, contractors and suppliers; contracts (including variations), specifications and certifications; site photographs; correspondence and records about purchase of fixtures, furniture, equipment and artworks. Samples of materials and brochures are scattered throughout the files.
This series is complemented by some personal records, files concerning the operations and organisation of the firm, financial records (wages, accounts) and files relating to professional associations. When available, these will be found as a series under 2018.0119.
Records created by Yuncken Freeman Architects are controlled by several reference numbers at the Archives, and parts of each job may be distributed across these reference numbers. Please see series 1984.0047, 1987.0050, 1987.0051 and 2018.0079.
