Kevin is a designer working within the domains of architecture, urbanism, interiors, graphic design, and culture/media. Currently, he is located in New York City, where he works as a designer at Space Exploration Design. Previously he has worked with firms across the United States and Europe (such as Bjarke Ingels Group and Snøhetta), wrote his thesis on the interim architectures of youth rave networks in Amsterdam, and assisted artists in Paris through the Cité International des Arts à Paris. Through NHDM, he also participated in the Seoul Biennale for Architecture and Urbanism. At the moment, he is conducting independent research on ad hoc architectures of post-industrial Berlin’s vibrant nightlife and is engaged with various competitions and projects throughout the city. In addition to his professional and independent work, he has lectured, been an invited critic, or taught in varying capacities at Columbia University, New York University, University of Houston, Boston Architectural College, New Jersey Institute of Technology and Austin’s South by Southwest.

Kevin received his Master of Architecture with honors from Columbia University, and his Bachelor of Science in Interior Architecture and Bachelor of Arts in French Literature from the University of Houston, summa cum laude. Following the completion of his graduate studies, Kevin was awarded the the Lowenfish Memorial Prize, the Building Technologies Honor Award, and the William Kinne Fellows Traveling Prize for postgraduate study, allowing him to conduct research on architecture, networks, and territories of interim urbanism in Berlin’s underground, techno cultures. There, he focused on the methodologies with which post-industrial space was appropriated and subverted into ad hoc utopias of simultaneous pragmatism and romanticism—spaces where different logics and desires of the land are projected and overlaid—resulting from the urban modulations and crises beset by the fall of the Berlin Wall.
