Being a student at <strong>XJTLU</strong>’s Department of Architecture was one of the best moments in my life. I was given<br />

the opportunity to gradually develop and find a position in relation to architecture and its indeterminacy. I am<br />

thankful for the support of my excellent mentors.<br />

Immediately after graduating from <strong>XJTLU</strong>, I began my Master of Architecture at Delft University of<br />

Technology (TUD) in 2017. From the very technical study of materials and structures, to research on contextual<br />

relationships and on how people dwell and occupy spaces in global contexts, during my Master graduation<br />

project on ‘architecture indeterminacy’ I was able to build on my educational experience at <strong>XJTLU</strong>.<br />

As I just graduated from my Master’s studies at TUD, considering all my prior experiences, I would argue for an<br />

architecture position of indeterminacy that re-questions precise meanings and limits of any precise meanings. I<br />

am open-minded and ready to accept further challenges in my career as an architect.<br />

Fragmented model of Indeterminacy<br />

Recap of architecture indeterminacy<br />

My passion for architecture derives from personal concerns. It is meaningful to me that architecture can work<br />

as a medium to convey stories of context and create various possibilities for people. My studies at <strong>XJTLU</strong> have<br />

shaped my understanding of architecture and cultivated my ability to explore new fields. After graduation,<br />

I worked at an architectural design firm named TEAM BLDG and developed professional skills in schematic<br />

design as well as in practical problem-solving. During this period, I also worked on interior design projects.<br />

The work experience changed my understanding of architecture as a holistic subject and of how to coordinate<br />

projects with people in other disciplines.<br />

I am currently studying at the University of Melbourne. I have been exposed to studios ranging from landscape<br />

architecture, to student housing, to research projects rooted in the Middle East. They allowed me to form an<br />

understanding of people and their different views and cultures in a new dimension. All the experiences so far<br />

have shaped the diversity of my thinking and provided more possibilities for my future career.<br />

THE VOYEUR – A dormitory design project starting<br />

from the desire of making films, and then revealing<br />

its essence as voyeurism and finally translating this<br />

quality into spatial language.<br />
