About The Rossmore Penthouse Te Hoahoa o Roto o te Penthouse
Ko te Rossmore Penthouse he kāinga noho e toru ngā papa kei roto i tētahi whare noho i Hancock Park, Los Angeles. E 7,000 pūtahi tapawhā te rahi o te wāhi o roto, ā, e whā ngā rūma moe me tētahi tuanui motuhake me te puna kaukau. I whakaaweawetia te hoahoa e ngā āhuatanga o te Art Deco. Ka whakamahia ngā rauemi māori me te rākau whakarōpū whakawhiti (cross laminated timber) mō ngā papa, ngā pakitara me te tuanui, e hanga ai he āhua tuwhera, he māhorahora hoki. Ka takai tētahi arawhata whakairo i tētahi māra tuwhera ki te rangi, e kawe mai ana i te mārama o te awatea me ngā tirohanga o waho ki roto. Ka honoa e te hoahoa te āhua hītori o te takiwā ki te hoahoa o roto o te wā hou.

- Production Technology
- CLT Technology (Cross Laminated Timber Construction)
Applications for CLT include floors, walls, and roofing. The panels’ ability to resist high racking and compressive forces makes them especially cost-effective for multistory and long-span diaphragm applications. - Design Challenge
- The most challenging aspect of this project was maintaining the historical connection to the surrounding area. Given that the neighborhood was built in an era of Art deco construction materials, the intention to maintain aspects of conventional design was paramount. The process involved paying homage to a neighborhood known for its bygone Hollywood charm; while simultaneously creating a landmark building environment that is visually stunning and sets precedence for a new age of cinematic luxury.
- Research
- Research for the Rossmore project borrowed from the cultural history of its location, known for Hollywood Royalty, as well as the economic history that gives rise to the Art Deco movement - prevalent in the neighborhood. This meant utilizing construction methods that are cost-effective while providing elegant and luxurious details in design. Balancing an intricate interplay of form and function. At its core, the Rossmore is a conventional building with elaborate curved facade ornamentation.
- Inspiration
- The Rossmore is a full-service high-end apartment building that reimagines the intersectionality between contemporary design and art deco charm. Inspired by today's material science, sculptural design, and art scene, the building envelope was developed to follow the guiding principles of Art Deco.
