Project Designer

Jason Kurzweil is a designer with an interest in the contrast between the digital and material dialogues of architecture. His personal approach to architecture involves a study of history and site to find elegant solutions to complex problems, with diligence to craft, composition, and scale.

Originally from New York, Jason received degrees in architecture and infrastructure planning from NJIT and a Master of Architecture from Yale University. Jason’s diverse professional experience includes skyscrapers across East Asia, new cities in China, Lunar habitats, and designs for museums and hotels: projects that implement new technologies into practice. At a smaller scale, his work on cafes, restaurants, and space conscious apartments helped generate a personal consideration for artisanship and materiality.
