ARCHITECTURE PORTFOLIO BAS, M.ARCH(PROF)

Hello! My name is Damon Dai.

An architectural graduate-M.Arch(Prof) with 5 years of experiences in architectural design.

I am particularly interested in contextural design and excited at every opportunity to integrate community involvement and sustainability.

Aside from my curiosities in architecture, I am continually learning new kinds of stuff and exploring my creativity through travelling and architectural photography.
