Born in Beijing in 1956. Received Master of Architecture degree from the University of California at Berkeley in 1984. Became a licensed architect in the U.S.in 1989. Established Atelier Feichang Jianzhg FCLZ in 1993 and has been practicing in China since 1992. He is the Principal Architect of Atelier FJCZ as well as the Head professor of the Peking Graduate Center of Architecture. The meaning of the Chinese phrase Feichang Jianzhg can vary from unusual architecture to very architectural . In Korean and Japanese the term can suggest an urgent architecture. As a possible definition of the Beijing-based architectural practice none of these readings is truly accurate although none is too far removed from reality either.Atelier Feichang Jianzhg was established in 1993 and now includes fifteen architects with Yung Ho Chang serving as its principal. In the context of the current economic boom in China the office strives for active participation while also exercising self-restraint it aims to focus on a basic yet researched architecture maintaining a critical position despite pressures generated by projects tremendous size number and condensed schedules. The work of FCJZ usually takes as a point of departure the essential issues of building program site space material construction and from such a foundation ventures into concerns of city Landscape tradition and culture. The studio s projects rangs from private houses to overnmental institutions from urban-scale proposals to exhibition installations with occasional experimentation with furniture and graphic design as well. For FCJZ the word architecture is seen as a verb describing the process of achieving a product but not necessarily the product itself. In the past nine years the office has architectured more than 110 projects.
