We’d like to take the opportunity to introduce you to the 1st prize winner of our "Timber Skyscraper Challenge" competition – Yanyan Zhang from United States!
Yanyan Zhang from United States
I graduated from UC Berkeley with a M.Arch degree, and I’m currently working at SOM LA office as an architectural designer, pursuing my License as well.
I love exploring innovative ways of using material, such as assembly details, structure uniqueness, and aesthetic potentials, which are usually the starting point of my design.
Most people spent most of their time in buildings - houses, offices, museums, stations, hospitals. In this case, good designs of architecture have the ability to elevate human experiences.
Architecture competitions offer me opportunities to think about future buildings and cities, to explore the boundaries of architecture, to study how new technologies can impact architecture.
