Jonathan Kelly Architectural Portfolio

Portfolio

This portfolio highlights my first and second years at Syracuse University. It features projects that illustrate my design process, final deliverables, and design language.

ARC 208 - Projects 1, 2, & 3

ARC 208 - Projects 1, 2, & 3

ARC 208 - Projects 1, 2, & 3

An exploration of tectonics through precedent analysis, urban context, and climate-responsive design. Projects examined structure, material, sound, site, and program, translating architectural systems from an existing precedent into a cultural institution in NoHo and a performance research center on Seattle’s Pier 48.

Project 1 was an exploration into systems of sound, formations of drumlins, and the Igualada Cemetery. Project 2 incorporated elements from these studies, including the influence of sound on the ground, the movement of sediment, and the spatial layout for pedestrian movement.

WRT 205: Genre Text & Political Video

An exploration of the destructive effects of artificial intelligence through 1960s–70s experimental film techniques. Using architectural imagery, distortion, and cinematic composition to examine technology, control, and destruction.

Arc 108 - Project 2

Designing a public recreational facility in downtown Syracuse. Responding to site, context, and community needs. Creating socially engaged architecture, flexible relationships between form and function, urban analysis, abstract systems, and expression.

ARC 108 - Project 1

An examination of vertical circulation in architecture, with an emphasis on sequence, balance, and material assembly. Creating an observation tower using structural prototypes and analytical drawings to examine gravity, equilibrium, and movement.

ARC 107 - Project 2

ARC 107 - Project 2

An in-depth analysis of 20th-21st century homes to understand and design a "dwelling," emphasizing form, order, ergonomics, programmatic elements, and spatial dynamics, while integrating historical, theoretical, and contemporary architectural contexts.

ARC 107 - Project 1

ARC 107 - Project 1

ARC 107 - Project 1

An exploration of construction, space, and form in architecture. Through exercises, workshops, and a final design, this project allowed me to delve into architectural concepts, and refine my representation skills to craft innovative and captivating spaces.
