Jonathan Wong is a fifth-year student at The Pennsylvania State University studying architecture and mathematics, as well as a member of the Schreyer Honors College and a LEED Green Associate. When he is not busy working in studio, he finds pleasure in digital photography and traveling to other countries to learn about different cultures.
As he sees it, mathematics should no longer be merely an analytical tool to quantify architecture, but instead, it should further our knowledge about the field and push it into new frontiers. Thus, Jonathan believes a new understanding about the role mathematics can play in architecture will redefine the ways in which we approach issues of sustainability.
From his experiences, he sees computational design as the true crossroads of mathematics and architecture And so, he wants to design architecture through mathematics such that it challenges people to look at and interact with the world around them in a new light.
