Fox Lin inc, is a multidisciplinary architecture, design and consulting office led by principals Michael Fox and Juintow Lin. At Fox Lin, we believe that changes in conventional thinking about architecture can ultimately revolutionize the way we design buildings. Our primary goal is solving client needs within their framework including schedule, budget, function and aesthetics. We offer clients innovative, yet practical and realizable options and solutions. We are interested in implementing proposals for integrating building technology that can concurrently achieve commercial practicality and provide our clients with a better quality of life. The partnership of Fox Lin combines the "sustainable" expertise of Juintow Lin with tin he "technological" expertise of Michael Fox to formulate a truly optimistic outlook on the integration of technology and architecture. We strive to make the point that technological development from within the fields of design and architecture can be focused to transcend ecological equilibrium; to have positive embodied energy assessments, material reductions and even change living pattern trends. Our design is a balance of all of these ambitions providing a solution that will satisfy the needs of the client with a contextual, artistic and functional integrity.
