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) conducted a design lecture entitled ‘As Free as the Grass Grows (和野草一樣的自由)’ at Swinburne Sarawak (Lecture Theatre). He talked about his projects and practice in Yilan, a regional city in Taiwan, and discussed 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. He firmly believes in the root of architecture that lies deeply within life itself, and life’s truest form is not one of static and tangible qualities, but of dynamic and ephemeral, constantly in change.
This lecture was a fringe event from the Borneo Eco Show (BES) 2025, a local initiative that aims to provide a dynamic platform for networking and raising awareness about the environment, design, and technology relevant to the Borneo region. BES2025 is supported by Business Event Sarawak, Swinburne Sarawak, Green Building Index, and the local chapter of the Pertubuhan Akitek Malaysia (PAMSC).
