PangArchitect, Hongkong/Boston

Architect Angela Pang brings together design, research, and teaching. Her Rational Form Making approach explores a fundamental question: How can we build more with less? Operating from her studio, PangArchitect, in Hong Kong and Boston, and as an Assistant Professor at the Harvard Graduate School of Design, she combines precise analysis, digital methods, and experimental modeling to drive architectural innovations. 


In search of objectivity in form-making, Pang’s approach merges creative freedom with explorations between natural forces and material-conscious efficiency to discover a new design process.

At the heart of the exhibition at Aedes is a striking experimental prototype a 3D-printed pavilion at the scale of 1:2.5 of an ongoing project for a public space in Hong Kong. Comprised of one module, the installation is a mesh made of 1,500 identical hexagons and explores the dynamic interplay of gravity in search of free form.

The exhibition also features two of Pang’s key projects: The New Library Extension of Polytechnic University in Hong Kong and the Hong Kong Literature Archive & Research Center. Both projects explore the studio's research on finding rational forms. Rational Form Making invites visitors to rethink architecture as a delicate balance of aesthetics, logic, and ecological responsibility. It is both a manifesto for architecture as a precise science and a celebration of its poetic appearance.
