Set in a wooded area, Tung House uses a zero-energy strategy and split-level design. Its unique roof optimizes solar orientation and passive heating and cooling.
-
This prototype house uses 600,000 lbs of steel and concrete from Boston’s Big Dig to show how salvaged infrastructure can build sustainable schools and housing.
-
Parallel to the 1960s, does today’s architecture lack a relevant movement? John Hong proposes form and allegory over function to tackle our imminent crises.
-
Join international architects from Asia and Australia for a symposium on Research by Design. We explore the impact of making, design research, and the academy.
-
Tung House proves that merging building science with spatial design creates a new synthesis. Its decoupled roof optimizes solar performance while transforming the interior volume and exterior typology.
-
City as Verb: Imminent Futures for Seoul’s Dongdaemun Region invites a public studio review with Marc Brossa, John Hong, and Sanki Choe.
-
A recording studio addition blends acoustic precision with rural context, shaping light, sound, and landscape into an immersive creative space.
-
Three townhouses reinterpret the wood-frame type with double-height spaces, garden balconies, and shared roofs that blur private and communal life.
-
A performance-based zoning tool uses computation to test density, daylight, parks, and program – proving urban quality need not decline as cities grow denser.
-
Manhattan’s Koreatown recasts inherited fabric through cultural exchange, where street life, commerce, and identity intertwine in a dense, dialogical urban topography.
-
An exhibition on nine Seoul projects shows how underused infrastructure can be recycled into new public realms, redefining the urban commons
-
The inaugural Seoul Biennale International Studio gathers global schools to reimagine Dongdaemun’s future through urban, social, and ecological networks.
-
Architecture and the Evolving “Commons” – London and Seoul convenes leading voices to examine how new forms of the commons are reshaping both cities.
-
Preservation, often seen as conservative, emerged in the 1960s as a radical act – reimagining old structures with new life to challenge linear, singular histories.
