Yang Yang
I hold a Master of Science in Design in Advanced Architectural Design from the University of Pennsylvania. I am pursuing a PhD focused on carbon—and energy-reducing design, which has significantly shaped my artistic approach.My design focuses on how buildings can integrate seamlessly with their environment to enhance sustainability and energy efficiency. Morphology, geometry, and performance-based design are central to my work. I am particularly inspired by how a building's energy performance shapes its form and how the natural environment interacts with and negotiates the structure's shape. This dynamic relationship between architecture and its surroundings guides my approach as I strive to create designs that are both efficient and in harmony with nature. My design work has been featured in international magazines and books, and I have been invited to numerous conferences and exhibitions to share my ideas and present my work.

My Architectural Focus As a Full Professor of Architecture and Building Technology, my architectural focus is rooted in sustainable innovation, cultural expression, and the advancement of design education. With over 25 years of international experience, my work bridges academic rigor, technological expertise, and artistic vision, allowing me to shape architecture not only as a built reality but as a transformative human experience.My research and teaching emphasize architectural tectonics, phenomenological design, and the integration of smart technologies in creating sustainable and livable communities. I believe in architecture as a multidisciplinary dialogue—one that harmonizes environmental responsibility, social context, and material integrity.I have been honored with several international recognitions, including the UNEP International Silver Award for Liveable Communities and the Research Excellence Award from Taif University, which reflect my commitment to impactful, forward-thinking design. As a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (FHEA) and a certified E-Learning Director, I actively contribute to reimagining architectural education through digital transformation and global collaboration.By serving on the jury of the INSPIRELI AWARDS, I aim to support and inspire the next generation of architects, encouraging bold ideas, meaningful narratives, and sustainable visions for our shared future.

Andriy Golub

Golub Architects Company and me, as the chief architect, have several focuses: firstly, it is a residential and commercial architecture (individual houses, apartment buildings, offices, cafes, restaurants, etc.); secondly, it is urban design; the third is the design of parks and recreational areas, landscape design. Also, now our company has a number of orders in a new field for us - these are memorial complexes (memorials are devoted to the Revolution of Dignity in Ukraine).
