Chang is famous for his innovative concepts and his experimental spirit when it comes to design. He strongly believes that creating a better spatial experience between people, buildings, and the city as a whole is an important part of the design method. In his view, space is not an enclosed room, but rather a series of relationships. The very movement of people in a building has a certain influence on the surrounding space. While spatial experience is a personal thing, Chang believes that architects have a responsibility to set the direction. Containing more than 60 architecture projects from his impressive work portfolio with a particular focus on architecture and space design, this book explores Chang's own investigations and research on space while also covering his unique design language.
