"Yaqi is always interested in poetic narrative and sustainable design in a practical way.

After five years of international study and work in Helsinki(Aalto University), Sydney(University of Sydney, 2022), Denmark (Aarhus Arkitektskolen, 2019) and Shanghai (Moore Ruble Yudell, 2020), she has an increasing curiosity about the relationship between architecture, humans and the site with honest emotion and critical thinking. Yaqi’s portfolio of work focuses on her sustainable, narrative and technology-driven projects that endeavour from housing research to public architecture."
