阅读中文版
On the 22nd of March 2025 (Saturday), Huang Sheng-Yuan of Fieldoffice Architects (黃聲遠 + 田中央工作群) will conduct a design lecture entitled ‘As Free as the Grass Grows (和野草一樣的自由)’ at Swinburne Sarawak (Lecture Theatre). He will talk about his projects and practice in Yilan, a regional city in Taiwan, and discuss the significance of building while being rooted in the local community, with local architects and students. Fieldoffice Architects was founded in 1994, starting as a small studio that grew into a large atelier as clients and staff members found resonance with Huang’s philosophies and vision.
Huang was born in Taipei in 1963. He graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Architecture from Tunghai University in Taiwan, before proceeding to Yale University for his Master’s degree. He worked with Eric Owen Moss Architects and also taught at North Carolina State University before returning to Taiwan.
Members of the community are welcomed to attend this public design free of charge by registering via Eventbrite.
