Yoon Hur
Designer + Architecture Student + Artist 3B Bachelor of Architecture Studies
Hello, my name is Yoon Hur. I am a third year student at the University of Waterloo School of Architecture. I find beauty in human connections made through interactions and engagements. I believe such relationship can be built, not solely between the individuals, but also with works of art, artifacts, and one’s surrounding environment. My passion lies on designing through the exploration of architecture’s affective qualities in human experience and behaviour; bringing life to a space. I am motivated, passionate, and truly eager to apply my creative ideas and collaborate with others to create new and exciting views of the world through the lens of architecture. Enjoy my collection of selected works!
