Singapore

I'm Adelin Johari — a Master of Architecture student at the Singapore University of Technology and Design, with a strong focus on concept-driven, research-led design at the intersection of architecture, ecology, and technology.

My work spans coastal resilience, landscape urbanism, and computational workflows — with interests in GIS-based spatial analysis, more-than-human-centric design, and adaptive environmental systems. I carry a founder-led mindset across academia, research, and entrepreneurship.

Developing my MArch thesis, The Chthulucene Manifesto — spatial biodiversity assessment and planning for coastal and marine adaptation — and working as a Research Assistant at the Centre for Climate Adaptation (CCA), Singapore.
