1. Design Philosophy
My approach to design exists at the intersection of architectural vision and structural reality. I believe that a building should not just be a machine for living, nor should it be a purely artistic sculpture; it must be a harmonious blend of form, function, and resilience.
Constructible Aesthetics: As a designer with roots in both architecture and civil engineering.
2. Design Ability
My multidisciplinary training allows me to manage a project seamlessly from conceptual massing to final structural detailing.
I am skilled in evaluating how forces move through a building. My engineering capabilities allow me to calculate gravity loads (dead and live loads) and lateral loads (wind and seismic forces), translating these calculations into safe load-path designs. I am proficient in choosing the optimal structural systems—whether reinforced concrete frames, structural steel trusses, or load-bearing masonry to support the architectural vision.
3. Design Strength
What sets me apart is a rare dual-lens perspective that bridges two traditionally separate fields.
The Interdisciplinary Bridge: I speak the language of both architects and engineers.
4. Software Proficiency
My technical toolkit spans across architectural modeling, structural analysis, and detailing software, allowing for a highly integrated workflow.Project 1: Multi-Use Urban Hub (Integrated Architectural & Structural Design)
