ABOUT USPushing the boundaries of architecture and interior design is a hallmark of Uy's work. His experimental proclivity is underpinned by a keen interest in the different fields, which allows him to delve into the various solutions that each area offers, from architecture to interiors, furniture, lighting and accessories, and even landscaping. His creative drive impels him to design structures that challenge technical construction possibilities and to make use of materials in unorthodox ways, but holding true to the discipline of solid architectural concepts. An implicit collaboration between architect and client occurs as Uy seamlessly injects the latter's demands into the overall design.Edwin Uy graduated cum laude in 1999 from the University of Santo Tomas. A firm believer in education, Uy continues to update his knowledge despite the demands of his practice, by attending courses in the Domus Academy in Milan, Italy, Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design in London, United Kingdom, and in Boisbuchet in Lessac, France. His studies abroad have brought him in close contact with world-renowned designers such as James Irvine, Ugo Passin, Stefano Giovannoni, Alberto Meda and Maarten Baas. A teacher and mentor himself, he recently gave up his position as lecturer at the Mindanao University of Science & Technology after nearly eight years due to work demands.
