He is an  Associate Professor at Hanyang University, Seoul and leads RBLab, a research and design lab exploring the intersection of emerging technology, computational design, fabrication and challenges conventional notions of architecture. Through teaching and research, he investigates how new design tools and modes of making can contribute to more adaptive, socially engaged and environmentally responsive forms of architecture. He also co-founded Studio RBLD and Kovacs + Partners, through which he works internationally across a wide range of projects and scales. His practice seeks to blur conventional boundaries between architecture, public space and landscape, bringing them together to create meaningful places where space, nature and human experience are conceived as one. He studied at the University of Hanyang and the Royal College of Art, having graduated Interior Architecture (BS) summa cum laude and Architecture (MA) with Distinction respectively. He is known for his thesis project, entitled Synth[e]tech[e]cology, which was nominated for the RIBA Silver Medal in 2013 and awarded the Sheppard Robson Prize at the Royal Academy of Arts’ Summer Exhibition in the same year.  Upon completing his RIBA Part II from RCA Architecture in 2013, Chang worked for Heatherwick Studio, London, for over seven years. There, as package lead, he delivered a wide range of award-winning high profile projects, including Zeitz MOCCA, Capetown; Google’s new headquarters in Mountain View, California; and the new Terminal 5 in Changi Airport, Singapore. He also developed his specialism in computational design and fabrication through consultancy at Front Inc until his return to Seoul in 2022. His works have been published in numerous international design magazines and journals, such as Dezeen, Wallpaper, Archdaily, Daily Mail, AJ, Wired, Inhabitat and Space. His work has also been exhibited globally, including in London, Stockholm, Milan, Seoul and Tokyo.  His recently completed project, Immersive Resilience has received  international recognition as a finalist for ArchDaily’s Building of the Year and the recipient of four international design awards, among them the Paris Design Awards.
