Haozheng (Henry) Wang

I design, build, test and refine ways to make buildings use less energy and feel better to be in. Trained first as an interior designer and then in environmental building design, I now work on whole-building energy models, facade and daylight studies, life cycle assessments, and the occasional physical prototype.

Sustainability Analyst at Beyer Blinder Belle Architects & Planners in New York. Open to conversations about building performance, research and sustainable design.
