COLLECTIVE

ABOUT COLLECTIVE

COLLECTIVE is a RIBA Chartered international architecture office practicing Architecture, Interiors and Exhibition Design. Headquartered in Hong Kong, with team members in London, Madrid, and Perth, COLLECTIVE remains globally oriented while strongly rooted in Asia.

Founded in 2015 by Betty Ng, co-directed by Chi Yan Chan and Juan Minguez, COLLECTIVE builds on the intercontinental experiences of the Directors, who have previously practiced in senior positions at Pritzker Prize-winning studios of Rem Koolhaas/OMA and Herzog & de Meuron.

COLLECTIVE is a research and concept-driven practice that offers powerful narratives believing in Clarity, Beauty, and Function. Design is practiced as a Methodology rather than as a Style.

The nature of COLLECTIVE focuses not on a single creator nor a single category of projects, but on a Collective of Critics and a Collective of Genres - Building on the convergence of a diverse team, COLLECTIVE engages a continuum of projects through the team’s wide spectrum of international experiences and collaborate with partners across disciplines, challenging the status quo of “named” architecture offices. This collaborative attitude ensures each project is subjected to a rigorous process of critical evaluation based on multiple perspectives, allowing the studio to avoid repetitive aesthetic approaches and create spaces that transcend single conventional typologies.
