Instructors Professor Tai Lee Siang Head of Pillar, Architecture and Sustainable Design Director, Design Z Programme Director, Design and Artificial Intelligence Singapore University of Technology and Design Lee Siang graduated with honours from NUS in 1987 and has practiced as an architect and urban planner since 1990. He started his career as an urban designer with the Urban Redevelopment Authority in 1990. Subsequently, he joined DP Architects in 1992 and became a partner in 2000. Between 2011 to 2016, Lee Siang joined Ong&Ong Group, a multi-discipline design firm as Group Managing Director. In 2018, Building & Construction Authority invited Lee Siang to assume the position of Executive Director, BuildSG to spearhead industry engagement. His role was expanded to include Communication and Engagement in 2020. In 2021, Lee Siang is appointed by Singapore University of Technology & Design to be the Head of Pillar, Architecture and Sustainable Design (ASD). Lee Siang is most passionate about voluntary works on the NGOs fronts. In the 10 years between 2007 and 2018, he was elected president for 3 trade associations and chairman for 1 global NGO. The organisations are : Singapore Institute of Architects, President 2007 – 2009 Singapore Green Building Council, President 2011 – 2013 Design Business Chamber Singapore, President 2012 – 2016 World Green Building Council, Chairman 2016 – 2018 A key initiative started during Lee Siang’s term as WorldGBC Chair is the Advancing Net Zero movement that results in the increasing adoption of Net Zero Buildings worldwide. Associate Professor Low Hong Yee Head of Pillar, Engineering Product Development Director, Digital Manufacturing and Design Centre Singapore University of Technology and Design Hong Yee is Head of Pillar for Engineering Product Development at SUTD. She concurrently holds the role of Director for the Digital Manufacturing and Design (DManD) Centre. Prior to SUTD, she spent about 13 years at the Institute of Materials Research and Engineering (IMRE) under the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR). Her research interest is primarily in polymer science and engineering. She has co-authored >100 peer reviewed publications and is a co-inventor in 25 granted patents in the topic biomimetic nanoimprinting. In 2010, under the funding support from A*STAR, she led an industrial consortium on nanoimprinting consisting of 4 members from institutes of higher learning and 15 international industrial members. She had also served as a founding group head for the Patterning and Fabrication Capability Group between 2007-2010 and the Director for Research and Innovation between 2010-2012 at IMRE. Since joining SUTD, her research activities have expanded to include high resolution 3-D fabrication, active and transformative micro, nano-surfaces and machine learning design of micro-, nano-surfaces and carbon capture films. Associate Professor Lynette Cheah Acting Head of Pillar, Engineering Systems and Design Singapore University of Technology and Design Lynette Cheah is Associate Professor and Acting Head of Pillar for Engineering Systems and Design at the Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD). She directs the Sustainable Urban Mobility research laboratory, which develops data-driven models and tools to reduce the environmental impacts of passenger and urban freight transport. She is Associate Editor for the Journal of Industrial Ecology and served as Review Editor for the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s (IPCC) Sixth Assessment Report. She is also a member of Singapore’s Public Transport Council. She received her PhD in Engineering Systems from MIT and master’s in management science from Stanford University. Assistant Professor Frederick Peter Ortner Assistant Professor, Architecture and Sustainable Design Singapore University of Technology and Design Peter is Assistant Professor and MArch and PhD Coordinator for Architecture and Sustainable Design at SUTD. His research leverages computational techniques to create sustainable architecture and urban design. His current research introduces optimisation into the process of design for circularity, augmenting the ability of the architect to contribute to zero-waste, carbon neutral cities. Predicting urban metabolism data for urban design scenarios is another on-going research pursuit. In recent research, he has applied computational design to challenges of urban resilience and automated mobility. His doctoral research built on insights from critical data studies and computational design to elucidate the changing role of architecture and architect in complex, data-driven urban systems. Peter received a PhD from EPFL where his doctoral thesis was nominated for the EPFL and City of Lausanne prizes. At EPFL he was a collaborator with Media x Design Lab, a cross-disciplinary team of designers and computer scientists. He holds a Master’s degree in Architecture from Harvard University where he was recipient of the Faculty Design Award, and a Bachelor of Arts cum laude with distinction in Architecture from Yale University. He has practiced architecture in the United States and Switzerland. Dr Zheng Kai Lecturer, Architecture and Sustainable Design Singapore University of Technology and Design Zheng Kai is a Lecturer in the Architecture and Sustainable Design pillar at SUTD. He obtained his Doctoral and Bachelor’s degrees from the National University of Singapore. His work investigates how evaporative cooling can be deployed in building design to achieve Thermal Comfort for the Tropics and his interests also lie in how architectural energy systems can work in synergy. Other works also include pandemic resilient architecture and systems to improve Building Wellness and health. He is an Accredited Professional for the BCA Green Mark and the WELL Building Standard (IWBI).
