Yung Ho Chang is not only renowned in China but throughout the
world, and here he brings together a collection of his impressive
architecture projects in an English edition for the first time. At
Yung Ho Chang’s practice FCJZ, besides space and its enclosure,
they tend to wonder if they can in fact “design” the way in
which people encounter the world and live their lives; in other
words, they seek to design experience—tangible, physical
experience. Containing 44 design projects from his impressive work
portfolio, this volume of design work is organised around an agenda
of their research interests within experience design, as well as
beyond: Experience of City, Experience of Everyday, Experience of
In-Out-Door, Experience of Learning, Experience of Lifestyle,
Experience of Mountain and Water, Experience of Movement,
Experience of Stories, and Experience of Time and Space. These
categories reflect a wide range of Chang’s research interests,
which include architecture, landscape, furniture, kitchenware,
jewelry, food, and clothing. The book also spotlights narratives
and comments from famous architectural critics and industry
experts, providing an enriching third-person perspective to
complete the rich content of this work.
When architecture is the subject of an exhibition, there is almost
always a dilemma: architecture can only be represented through
drawings, models, and photographs; the physicality of architecture
per se is missing. The abstraction of architecture for exhibition
and the absence of architectural experience in architectural
exhibition are in fact two sides of the same coin: The problem of
the lack of an architectural reality. In this book, Yong He Chang
traces the history of architectural intervention in exhibitions and
answers the above questions through more than forty exhibition
designs made by Chang and Atelier FCJZ. The book showcases his
original approach to construction and shares his thoughts on the
relationship between architecture and the timeless aspects of
'exhibition'. It also includes a discussion of a series of issues
Yong He Chang and his team have encountered in designing
exhibitions and installations, and the responses they came up with.
