About



Hi! I'm Yoonjae, an architectural designer intrigued by reshaping spaces to meet new demands. By day, I'm a facade consultant at Front Inc., detailing custom designs for building envelopes. I'm drawn to the subtle details within buildings that can significantly influence their functionality. Maybe it's because of my background in interior design during my undergrad years – that's where this interest took root.

My architectural journey began with a simple curiosity about transforming spaces into versatile options. A recent MIT architecture graduate, I'm keen on infusing life into older spaces. This path led me to explore the memories that dwell within spaces and our minds, culminating in my thesis and earning me the Faculty Thesis Award.

I'm naturally drawn to the practicality of vintage styles in architecture, spaces, furniture, and everyday items like stationery. Also, designs from the 1950s-1990s inspire me, as they seem to hold unique stories rooted in their specific historical context, distinct from that of today's structures.

”tinkering with the concept of time.”










Memory (the deliberate act of remembering) is a form of willed creation. It is not an effort to find out the way it really was- that is research. The point is to dwell on the way it appeared and why it appeared in that particular way. (Toni Morrison, 1995)
