Finding aid to UGA05-056


UGA ARCHIVES	Finding Aid for UGA 05-056 Dean Hubert Owens Private Practice Landscaping Projects, 1939-1967

Record Group: 2-14 (Environmental Design)

2 Bankers Boxes, 2 Newspaper Boxes, 9 Map Folders: 4 Cubic Feet

CREATOR NOTE:

In addition to serving as Dean of Landscape Architecture and making life-long contributions to the development of environmental design education, Hubert Owens also conducted a private practice in landscape design. These files and plans, often done with his partner, fellow faculty member and noted landscaping specialist Brooks Wigginton, document the development of post-World War II practices.

Whether accompanying a modern or traditional structure, the plans often show a modern interest in making the yard a place of beauty and a center for entertaining. Of particular interest are the plans done for Cason Calloway in the development of Calloway Gardens.

PROCESSING NOTE:

For many years these plans were part of MS 920 in Hargrett Manuscripts and then part of University Archives collection 92-253. The plans, often quite large, were folded into document boxes, leading to their deterioration. For preservation purposes, these materials were separated from 92-253 and placed in this new collection, utilizing newspaper boxes and map folders to better house the plans. This process has been documented in collection history folder 05-056, available upon request.

Due to space limitations it has often been necessary to place materials from one project into three storage locations, as seen on the inventory below.

Boxes 1 and 2 of the collection contain the files of written documentation and small plans.
In one case there was no folder accompanying a plan and in other cases folders will be empty if they only contained oversize materials.

Boxes 3 and 4 are oversize newspaper storage boxes which house plans of medium size arranged alphabetically by project title. The inventory below will indicate when a project includes plans in one of these boxes (column four).

The collection is completed with 9 map folders, each containing projects in alphabetical order.
