Thomas, Arthur Hillsborough CA, 1979
Scope and Contents
Records for Dmitri Vedensky span the years 1948-1996. The collection is organized into four series: Personal Papers, Professional Papers, Office Records, and Project Records. Within these series documents are ordered chronologically and alphabetically.
Most of the collection contains projects completed by Vedensky as a sole practitioner. Office records include photographs and reduced scale drawings that were most likely created and collected to promote the firm. They record not only the buildings themselves, but indicate how projects were presented, interpreted, and received. The project files include written records (correspondence, specifications, notes, and reports), drawings, site photographs and slides, as well as photographs of architectural study models.
Vedensky’s personal papers constitute only a fraction of the collection. The professional papers reveal his active involvement in the San Francisco Arts Commission in the mid-1970s and early 1980s.
