The name of Adam Dayem's architecture and design studio, actual / office architecture, reflects its attitude. The freedom to actualize hidden
potentials, bringing the previously unimagined into focus, is separated from, yet simultaneous to, the weight of responsibility and authority.
The studio purposefully drifts between unencumbered speculations and tough realities. Founded in 2004 by Adam, the Brooklyn-based a/o
takes on a wide variety of work including residential, exhibit design, furniture design, and research projects, and has won several awards for
theoretical research and architectural projects. Adam is also an educator, holding the position of Assistant Professor at Rensselaer Polytechnic
School of Architecture. He has previously taught architecture and design at the University of Pennsylvania, The New School for Design, Columbia
University, and Pratt Institute. His current research focuses on the nature of representation in contemporary architectural design and its evolving
capacities to produce conceptual and formal novelty.
