Jenchieh Hung is a world-renowned architect, educator, curator, and artist, internationally recognized for his experimental approach to contemporary architecture in Asia. He is the principal architect of Jenchieh Hung + Kulthida Songkittipakdee / HAS design and research, an award-winning architecture and design practice based in Bangkok, Thailand. Through the studio’s multidisciplinary work across architecture, interiors, exhibitions, research, and urban discourse, Professor Jenchieh Hung has become one of the important voices representing contemporary Thai architecture on the global stage. His international influence has been recognized through his appointment as a juror for the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) – RIBA International Awards: Asia Pacific Awards, becoming the first architect from Thailand to serve in this prestigious role, as well as for The Association of Siamese Architects (ASA) – ASA Experimental Design Awards in Thailand. He was also appointed as a guest editor of the Journal of the Architects Regional Council Asia (ARCASIA Journal), contributing critical perspectives on the emergence of contemporary Thai architecture on the global stage. Educated through both international academic and professional experiences, Professor Jenchieh Hung has developed a design philosophy that explores the evolving relationship between nature, material, culture, climate, and urban transformation. His architectural approach often investigates the tension between raw natural conditions and rapidly developing contemporary cities, particularly within the Asian context. Together with Professor Kulthida Songkittipakdee, he introduced the conceptual framework Nature Trilogy: Innate Nature, Evolved Nature, Hybrid Nature, which reflects the studio’s ongoing exploration of architecture as a mediator between nature and the human-made environment. In academia, Jenchieh Hung currently serves as a distinguished professor, visiting professor, adjunct/visiting professor, adjunct professor, and design critic in architecture at institutions including Tongji University, Chulalongkorn University, King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi, and World University of Design.
