Jooeun Sung

Jooeun Sung is a UK chartered architect and currently a professor at Yonsei University in Seoul, South Korea. She was influenced by situationist architecture and is highly interested in human beings in various aspects of architecture and urbanism. Sung interprets architectural design in the context of urban dynamics and investigates how design and its process respond to the live cities. She looks at and engages with elements of the city we live in and fabricates physical and social relationships within. Her experiments of social structure in the format of direct actions and workshops continue to balance participatory and educational workshops with practice enriching the broader term of ‘architecture.’ Sung studied at Yonsei University and the Architectural Association School of Architecture in London.
