Taylor’s University

Low Weng Fai final year architecture student at taylor’s university.

about me I am currently in my final year of my architecture degree in Taylor’s University and an aspiring architect.

As an architecture major, I have passion for anything creative and I am enthralled by the idea of using the power of design to positively impact people and the surrounding environment.

I strongly believe that architecture should reflect its surrounding context and have positive impacts on social, cultural and the environment in society.

I like finding new experiences hence, I am eager to learn about new things unfamilar with me as long as it helps me develop my skillset.

first year experience space and sensory, exploration through spaces.

-

The spaces designed along with how the user will interact within it are a representation of my first year experience in my architecture degree. It may be tough at first, encountering a new and unfamiliar environment. Obstacles and mistakes will be made but, take time to reflect on it, a much more confident and sturdy person will appear.
