Kuo+Huang and Associates

Founded in 1998 by Hsuyuan Kuo and Effie Huang, KHAA is an interdisciplinary architectural firm based in Taipei, Taiwan. Rooted in the city, our works mainly focus on urban residences, guided by the belief to “shelter daydreams and safeguard dreamers” amid profit-driven realities.

KHAA has received numerous honors, including the JCD Design Award, Good Design Award, FIABCI World Prix d’Excellence Awards,  the Golden Pin Design Award, and several Taiwan Residential Architecture Award nominations. Kuo also won the Taiwan Outstanding Architect Award in 2015. Later on, we won first place in 2019 Taiwan Architecture Award and Far Eastern Architectural Award with Folio Daan. Most recently, The Great Shine won first place in the 2024 Taiwan Residential Architecture Award.

From urban planning to interior design, KHAA’s practice is rooted in everyday life and driven by the philosophy “Exploring Possibilities,” creating works that merge context, imagination, and Eastern aesthetics.
