His professional experience at KRIS YAO | ARTECH involved large-scale office and hospital projects, urban renewal strategies, and curtain wall design, grounding his design practice in both technical rigor and contextual sensitivity. His research explores the intersections of temporality, energy, ecology, and adaptation, reframing the relationship between body, environment, and architecture. Through design and critical inquiry, he seeks to cultivate new ways of perceiving.
