2005 Eric Owen Moss Architects Budget: $2,000,000 As part of a three-person team, I participated in the design execution and evolution through physical modeling, drafting, and computer modeling
Engineered by Arup, the project was developed to have an exposed steel plate structure, giving the mass shear strength despite its eccentric form. The project provides a beacon in the Culver City arts district, allowing artists to rear-project images on its skin. The fashion photographer (image left) image, captures its essence through emphasis of the brutal form, light and shadow. I participated in design discussions helping to establish the final form and details. These decisions were worked out through elevations, sections, computer and the physical model shown here.

2005 Eric Owen Moss Architects Budget: Not defined As part of a three-person team, I develop four concepts for an eco-city working between Rhino and Illustrator
The plan below was part of an 80 page book containing 4 proposals for a sustainable city off the coastline of Balandra Bay, Mexico City. The project explores a city which exists off the grid, deriving its power entirely from natural energy sources, preserving the coastline’s natural beauty. The enlarged axon is the plan on which I focused. The parti is based on an inverse Nolli plan: Buildings take the shape of public spaces. The public or negative spaces then become what traditionally would be the shape of cathedrals and buildings. Power is generated through large water collection devices which use the hydrostatic power to generate electricity while distributing water to the city. Solar power is used to generate the initial flow of water to collection devices. The sides of dams are used for dwellings. In the end, of the four concepts, the Mexican government chose this one but the project remains unrealized.

The pixilated facade is composed of flat planes of glass without triangulation. Each plane is a unique parallelogram creating the curved effect. The steeper the curve, the further the pixilations breaks down. Facade and structure are allowed to intersect creating complicated intersections of steel and glass. I was solely responsible for building the 1/2� scale model, resolving many of these complexities. I did this through a back and forth study of the computer and physical models. The computer model was accomplished through a combination of 3DS Max and Rhino.

OCEAN FRONT WALK
2010 FIELDS Budget: $5,000,000 Responsible for all aspects of project
The goal of the project was to optimize views towards the beach while providing privacy from adjacent properties. The rear of the house was made primarily private, as it fronts an alley and contains bedrooms while the ocean side was left entirely open. The skin provides this privacy while allowing light to penetrate the thin layer of metal perforated with 1/16� diameter openings. A second pattern of perforations is cut to create a change of density across the facade. 5

HILLSIDE RESIDENCE
2008-2010 FIELDS Budget: $4,000,000 Responsible for all aspects of project through schematic design
The existing Spanish-style home lacked a formal entrance and did not take advantage of Los Angeles downtown views. The driveway is reconfigured to allow entry on the first level into a grand foyer opening to the existing pool. The addition’s exterior is designed to blend with the existing rough textured stucco. Small openings allow light into a three-story space with lower level containing a lap pool and exercise room. Arches tie the old and new structures together. The upper floor of the addition is a master suite offering views of the downtown Los Angeles skyline. 6

Jan
Apr Feb Mar May Jun Situated in the Santa Monica mountains in Hidden Valley California, a couple of hours north of Los Angeles, the estate boasts panoramic views of the rolling hills and mountainscapes. The challenge was to hide a ten car garage beneath the requested 10,000 sf residence, capture views in a unique way, and open the house to the outdoors. In a short couple of weeks, myself and another team member developed a wide variety of concepts. Three were chosen within the office for further development with floor plans and material studies developed to present the client. The three developed in greater detail included rock, house, and stack.

HOUSE is created by arbitrarily stacking volumes which are then carved to create a massing similar to the house typology with an intentionally dramatic and formal presence on the site. Voids range in size creating windows and balconies facing all directions. Board-formed concrete and mirrored glass create the material palette. A skylight penetrates the center volume creating a central courtyard within the house, reducing the floor plate depth and bringing light

CRISSCROSS

Adam Rosekelly_Portfolio
CRISSCROSS explores the weaving of space from above and underneath creating space for light to pass into the large floor plate, creating voids in plan that surprise you with unpredictable intersections. The ground floor is more porous than the upper but provides a structure for the upper plinth to rest. Bars of equal dimension provide opportunity for unobstructed and framed views of the landscape. Upper floor openings allow light to penetrate the base keeping spaces well lit but protected from the mid-day heat which consumes the afternoon.

ROCK is a direct response to the rock found on site. It acts as a lantern at night, glowing from the rectangular volumes removed, creating an opportunity for balconies. The mass sits above a garage allowing the form to reveal its belly. Two voids pass through the mass vertically from roof to garage level, bringing light through its core. The pool takes the form of four intersecting volumes. The roof deck is carved in a similar manner. Its material is envisioned as stamped copper patinaed and rusticated with vines covering its skin, creating a lush natural presence on the site. Cobblestone and decorative glass details are intended to bring an old world quality to the formal site.

JIGSAW uses the most basic form, a cube, and replicates it across three floor plates revealing gaps, creating opportunities for light to penetrate the mass. The stacking of three independent floor plates is revealed with a slight rotation from floor to floor, creating overhangs which break the massing and emphasize horizontality. The skin is unresolved but a series of solid and void boxes could be imagined, allowing privacy or protection from light in some spaces, while others, completely exposed. A courtyard is exposed simply by removing boxes from its core.

STACK is intended to be perceived as a BLOCK is by far the most stark, continuous ribbon which uses itself to stack and create experimenting with solid, void, and their structural simplicity. The presence of the mass on proximity, creating overlapping volumes. The large voids create space which can be used as entering the site is the most powerful due to this stacking effect. Its center is carved away entirely allowing courtyard, garden or patio overlapping interior light to fill the mass, creating a space shaded from the living areas. In some cases the volumes are like afternoon sun and a form perceivable from the interior. tunnels making their way from one side of the The central courtyard space then becomes a focal point house to the other. In other cases, they reveal themselves only to the sky. from the interior of the house. The form reduces its own mass in order to occupy the most extreme height on the site and therefore capturing the most extreme view of the landscape of all the concepts.

Consisting of five retail storefronts and four residential apartments, the Cheerio was a dilapidated building built in the 1930’s. The design blends modern detailing with the existing historic context including new signage and fenestration. The interior planning allows for optimal storage in an open studio apartment. Reclaimed Maple parquet floors are installed as both floor and counter top, wall base, window and door trims. Pocketing doors allow for optimal spatial efficiency. Detailing is minimalistic allowing wood and drywall to meet without reveals.

2013 LDA Architects 2 Week Competition Responsible for Revit model, renderings and entourage
The proposal for the 60 unit housing project was to integrate materials used in the neighborhood while maintaining a contemporary aesthetic. A combination of metal, brick and wood are used to create a layered facade. Operable windows and balconies add to this effect. Storefront glazing shifts from in-board to out-board at each floor adding depth to the facade.

The brutalist tower has been occupied by CMHA’s low income housing tenants since the 1960’s and had begun to show its age. Spalled concrete was repaired and resealed, lighting and signage added to accent the original striated concrete panels. Interiors were completely gutted and updated with LED lighting, sealed concrete floors, wood accents and bright colors. The lobby, shown here, is proposed to have a dramatic ceiling which utilizes the existing structure’s 20’ first floor ceilings but dives down to conceal its infrastructure.

INTERACTIVE INFLATABLE WALL
Spring 2015 University of Michigan Master of Science: Digital Technologies Capstone Project
The project uses inflatables to transform the mundane condition of a wall. Light pulses, transforming the seemingly opaque. An Arduino is used with video sensors tying interaction to movement, light and sound. The wall breaths in and out, connecting architecture with the human psyche. The wall merges with an existing wall on one end and twists on itself, creating a fully immersive environment on the other, resulting in a project that is at once banal and abrupt, subtle and uncanny.

RGB
red room 2011 FIELDS Collaboration with Dru McKeown of TOI Studio Responsible for the design and construction of the red and blue room and overall concept / coordination of spaces, lighting and sound
20 Adam Rosekelly_Portfolio
RGB was conceived as a full immersion of the senses. All three rooms change shape, function, color and sound. The red room played thick-textured house music while the blue room played organic soundscapes. The green room collected small amounts of sound from both. Rhinoceros documentaries were projected on the ceiling installation, completed by Jason Turnidge. The red and blue room were collaboration between Dru McKeown and myself. The event brought close to five hundred people through the otherwise vacant building for one evening. The blue room is comprised of over 2500 pieces of maple reclaimed from a racquetball court. The arch transforms within the space from flat to arch, symbolizing a dichotomy in architecture today, between computer generated forms and those of the past, contrasting the steel lintels used to support the existing storefront. For the event, a yogi performed behind a veil symbolizing the life returned to the old structure.
Binoceros was a construction board-up designed to reinvigorate the Gordon Square historic landmark district and bring attention to the “Cheerio� property under redevelopment. Plywood was perforated for the purpose of allowing daylight to penetrate the facade during the ongoing construction. The name comes from the binary code applied to the skin and the pink rhinoceros named Cheerio. Morse code is painted and perforated with the phrase shown on the left by Henri Lefebvre.

Fall 2014 University of Michigan Master of Science: Digital Technologies 3 week project
The project uses Digital Project to script various textures as line. The robot is then used as a prototyping tool. As shown in the drawings here, several variations in both density and depth were studied to test the capacity of both scripting and robotic bending. The bending process has its own series of angle constraints which dictated the process significantly.

KINEMATIC 3D PRINTED LIGHT
Winter 2015 University of Michigan Master of Science: Digital Technologies One Semester Project Two person team using Digital Project and SolidWorks
The project investigates the potential of kinematics in 3D printing for the purpose of reducing a printed volume and eliminating assembly required for other manufacturing techniques. The top left image shows a series of test models leading up to the final shown in the remaining photographs. The test models are used to confirm tolerances and look at the application of kinematics through folding, weaving, coiling, telescoping and pivoting. The final model uses a series of pivot joints which scissor. Each scissor has a fin which overlaps the adjacent, making use of ABS plastic’s naturally translucent aesthetic. 25 Adam Rosekelly_Portfolio

FASHION MUSEUM The class expands on first semester’s SPRING 2012
emphasis on the abstract by adding program, material and site to project requirements. Project one, a fashion museum, propagates student interest in skin through studying, in this case, woven fabric as expression of facade. The student wove this pattern and placed it between building and external skin, creating a tripartite system. This includes solid - void, fabric, and external frosted glass, diffusing the other layers.
GREENHOUSE Project two, a greenhouse with classroom facilities, forces students to develop longspan structures into their formal and material concepts. The project below looks at layering the facade to filter light into classrooms. This concept carries the triangulation through to greenhouse zones by dissolving surface and articulating structure.

ARCHITECTURE BUILDING AND DORMITORY
Project three, below, articulates the difference between dorm and architecture school through subtle changes in material density and aperture size. The larger mass is the dormitory. Privacy from the neighborhood is created by providing a dense external facade, while creating an internal courtyard of glass. This creates a space for communal activities. Large internal stratifications are contrasted by the small external ones, revealing a complex system of order defined by an external shell and an internal matter.
