The architect bridging global ideas and Vietnamese architecture

Khoa Vu (Vu Phuoc Dang Khoa) is the architect & founder of Studio KHOA VU, an independent architecture practice based in New York City exploring the intersection of architecture, culture and spatial experience. His work is guided by a design philosophy that balances rational form with human perception, creating spaces that are both intellectually rigorous and deeply connected to the way people live, move and interact. Alongside his practice, Khoa is a Design Critic in Architecture at the Harvard Graduate School of Design, where he teaches the Core Master Design Studio. A graduate of both Harvard GSD and UC Berkeley, his work has been recognised by leading international platforms including the WAF 40 Under 40, the Venice Biennale, the Lexus Design Award and the Architecture MasterPrize. Through Studio KHOA VU, he continues to explore architecture as a cultural practice that bridges innovation, sustainability and everyday life.
