Please give us a brief bio of yourself and your design background.<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

I am Eric Chan, the Co-Founder\/Design Director of O&O Studio. I studied at The University of Nottingham with a MEng Master degree. And also graduated with Diploma in Architecture at The University of Westminster with Distinction. In 2007, I joined and spent over 4 years at the highly acclaimed London practice, Allford Hall Monaghan Morris (AHMM). Where I qualified as an Architects Registration Board (ARB) registered architect. I was involved on several award-winning education, conservation and residential projects in the UK and South Africa. And contributed vastly to public architectural events and public consultation programmes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moving from London to Shanghai in 2011, I joined the world renowned Safdie Architects. The practice was led by the 2015 AIA Gold Medal recipient, Moshe Safdie. I was one of the Safdie\u2019s Team Leaders in the 24billion RMB Capitaland mixed-used development, Raffles City Chongqing (RCCQ) project. Also leading and managing the Conservatory fa\u00e7ade and interior design, as well as Podium Roof and Skylights design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With over 12 years international experience and as a Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) Chartered Member, I also hold a CIBSE membership and has developed a strong interest on integrating sustainability into project delivery. I was part of the AHMM Environmental Group which was awarded the AJ100 Most Sustainable Practice Award, with strong passion analysing client\u2019s brief and vision and collaborate with other creative professions. I am also very keen on exploring architectural space through photography. My award-winning work has recently been exhibited and published in London, Copenhagen, and the USA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
