CLASH TO CRAFT
Studio Clash is founded on the principle of "Clash to Craft," believing that valuable design ideas often emerge from the convergence and friction of different perspectives. "Collision" is a natural part of the creative process, and the balanced outcome that emerges from this sedimentation is the core we strive to achieve. We pay attention to the tension between seemingly disparate concepts, mediums, and paradigms—these are not oppositions but rather environments where more possibilities can grow through reflection and interaction.
Our practice spans from subtle installations and architectural design to urban renewal, always grounded in sustainability. Through technological integration and interdisciplinary collaboration, we explore expressions beyond traditional paradigms, continually pushing the boundaries of innovation.
Cohaul Guohao Chen is the founder of Studio Clash. He holds an Master of Architecture from Columbia University, and a B.F.A. in Architectural Design from Parsons School of Design. Previously, he contributed to projects with MVRDV, MAD Architects, and 3XN/GXN. He is interested in design as a constructed methodology, emphasizing the critical implementation of circular design principles to articulate the built environment, while simultaneously advocating for low carbon design and sustainable architecture.
