Terry Luo — HTGAA Spring 2026
About me
I am a Masters of Design Studies candidate in the Ecologies domain at Harvard GSD.
I love cooking, video games, puzzles, animals, martial arts, and movies.
I have previously researched and worked with mycelium as a building material, from cultivation to production, to explore its structural and insulating quality. I am currently researching design strategies that explore architecture’s ability to contribute to marine ecosystems after being submerged by water, such as architectural materials that promote coral colonization after sea levels rise.
