Zebin Zheng

I am a Master of Science in Design – Advanced Architectural Design (MSD-AAD) candidate with a strong focus on housing, particularly public and collective living. My works investigates how architecture can empower communities through thoughtful, inclusive, and materially responsive design. Guided by the belief in “building my shelter,” I approach architecture not only as a spatial and formal practice, but also as a social responsibility to create dignified and equitable environments for all. My academic and professional experiences span residential architecture, educational facility design, infrastructure design, public housing research, and contemporary architectural theory. These diverse explorations are unified by a consistent attention to human needs, emotional resonance, and structural clarity. With hands-on experience in AI-assisted design, physical model making, full-scale prototyping, and interdisciplinary collaboration, I aim to contribute to projects that critically engage with the role of architecture in shaping just and resilient urban futures.
