About 

I just received the master’s degree of Advanced Architecture Design at Columbia University in the city of New York. One of my most unique characteristics is I have sensitivity to Architecture and modeling ability. I’ve learnt architecture for six years and travel to different country to experience the local culture and city context which makes me respect to history, urban context and the lifestyle of locals. During three-semester’s learning in Columbia University, instructed by Juan Herreros, Jeffery Inaba, Laurie hawkinson and Vishaan Chakrabarti and my studio work was selected to publish in school’s annual publication “Abstract”. I learn how to design responding to the social, environmental and economic condition. I’m trying to create buildings with elegant proportion, delicate shape and fine detail. I’m always interested in Chinese projects with you if possible.
