"DISCIPLINE"
"WATER TAUGHT ME HOW TO FEEL SPACE BEFORE I LEARNED HOW TO BUILD IT."
Growing up in Taiwan as a national swimmer, the pool was my sanctuary. Underwater, the world is silent. You feel everything: the pressure, the resistance, the rhythm of your own breath. You learn that "flow" isn't just a metaphor; it's physics.
But I always wondered: What happens when you break the lane?
I realized that great architecture shares the same DNA as elite sports: It requires structure to create freedom.
Like Virgil Abloh said, "I don't have to choose between being a creative or a consumer." I don't have to choose between being an athlete or an architect. I am both.
My mission is to bring that visceral, sensory clarity of the water into the chaotic world of retail and brand strategy. I want to design environments where people don't just "shop," but feel a shift in their state of mind.
Whether it's a coffee hub for runners or a flagship store in Tokyo, I design for the human body in motion. I design for the sweat, the grit, and the glory.
This is my new sport. And I’m just getting started.
