CLASH TO CRAFT
Studio Clash is founded by Cohaul Guohao Chen in New York. We
have garnered extensive design and hands-on expertise through our work at renowned international architectural firms such as MVRDV in the Netherlands, 3XN/GXN in Denmark, and MAD in Beijing, among others. We are dedicated to our responsibility as designers, and we commit ourselves to improving occupant and environmental health through an ethically and environmentally-conscious practice.
Clash to Craft.
Born from the belief that true innovation emerges from chaos and collision, Studio Clash embodies a radical approach to architecture and design. While our name evokes discord, it’s the transformative rebirth after the clash that defines our ethos. We believe in breaking boundaries, mixing mediums, and reshaping conventional paradigms. We represent a blend of multi-scale design strategies, sustainable solutions, and technological integrations, making it a preferred choice for clients seeking both sustainable and innovation in design.
