The North Carolina Buildings Collection includes drawings, specifications, construction contracts, and correspondence relating to individual buildings in North Carolina. Unbuilt projects are included. The finding aid contains a description for each project, including the name of the architect(s), a brief description of the project, and an inventory of documents. Projects are arranged in order of receipt.
The late 19th century saw radical changes in building practices in North Carolina, brought about by the rise of professional architects and contractors, increased industrialization, and the standardization of building components. Population booms between 1900 and 1940 precipitated increased construction, and suburbs emerged where major cities doubled or tripled their populations during this period. Increasingly, professional architects were responsible for the design of housing, as well as commercial, industrial and civic buildings. In 1905, North Carolina became one of the earliest states to enact a uniform building code. The North Carolina Architectural Association (NCAA) was formed by a group of Charlotte architects in 1909. Their aims were ultimately to form a North Carolina Chapter of The American Institute of Architects (AIA) and to promote the passage of an architectural Practice Act Bill in the General Assembly. The North Carolina Chapter of AIA, chartered in 1913, regulated fees to eliminate unfair competition and provided a code of ethics for professional standards. The Practice Act Bill, ratified in 1915, provided for the examination and licensing of architects. A similar "Act to Regulate the Practice of General Contracting," passed in 1925, regulated the construction industry. Regulation of architectural and building industries led to increased uniformity in working drawings and specifications for buildings, as national industry standards for drafting and construction were followed. Still largely rural and conservative following World War II, North Carolina nevertheless made rapid economic and architectural progress. The 1950s found the state on the cutting edge of architectural development, as the internationally renowned faculty of the School of Design at North Carolina State College vigorously promoted modernism as the only "correct" style. Modernism was embraced for governmental and institutional buildings, while housing remained, for the most part, rooted in traditional forms.

The Hamlet railroad station stands at the intersection of major North-South and East-West railway lines. A deep pent roof supported by brackets shelters the platform, a typical feature of turn-of-the-century railroad architecture. The Hamlet station is distinguished from simpler stations by the swelling bay of its round waiting room, located in the "elbow" of the L-shaped building.

The neo-classical D.H. Hill Library was designed by Hobart Upjohn and built in 1926. Following the Library's relocation to a new building on central campus in the mid 1950's, the building became the home of the School of Design and was renamed Brooks Hall in honor of former NC State College president E.C. Brooks. In 1954, F. Carter Williams designed a modernist addition in collaboration with School of Design faculty member George Matsumoto.

Frank K. Thomson and partner Charles W. Barrett were exponents of the Colonial Revival (or so-called Southern Colonial) movement in domestic architecture. Their booklet "Colonial Southern Homes" helped to popularize the style. The floor plans of the Vann residence, with its symmetrical plan and central, recessed portico of two stories flanked by terraces on the ground floor, suggest a Colonial Revival facade.

Biographical/Historical note
The South Building was constructed on the campus of the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill between 1798 and 1814. Extensive additions to the campus in the 1920s included the remodeling of South Building, which stood at the northern end of a new north/south quadrangle. Under the direction of the New York architectural firm McKim, Mead, and White, supervising architect Arthur Nash and engineer Thomas C. Atwood were responsible for many of the new buildings and alterations made on UNC's campus during this period.
Alterations to the South Building included the addition of a portico on the south facade, as well as new doorways and classical ornamentation.

0.018 Linear feet

18 sheets
Biographical/Historical note
The Fadum House is one of several Modernist houses built in Raleigh from the 1940s to the 1960s. These houses were the manifestation of architectural concepts embraced by the faculty of the School of Design, established in 1948 at North Carolina State College (now North Carolina State University). The Fadum House has a single-slope flat roof supported by large, built-up wood columns, giving it a wedge-shaped section. Built on a two by four module, the house displays finishes throughout of exposed brick, stained and sealed plywood, or tongue-and-groove pine, cypress or redwood. Its deeply cantilevered overhangs, orientation to the southeast, and large expanses of glass allow for supplemental solar heating in the winter. Influenced by Frank Lloyd Wright's Usonian mode of design, the Fadum House presents a mostly blank facade with carport toward the street, while opening up elevations toward a natural site on the sides and rear. Usonian design is characterized by small scale, affordable construction, open plan interiors, integration of interior and exterior spaces, flat roof and large glazed areas such as windows and doors. In 1952 the Fadum House was featured as the House of the Year in
Architectural Record. It is a designated Raleigh Historic Landmark.
