Founded in Kuala Lumpur in 2012, formzero is an architectural research studio established with the ideology of incorporating multi-disciplinary sustainable design and re-engaging architecture with tropical landscapes in the urban context. Led by Lee Cherng Yih and Caleb Ong, the practice’s design approach challenges typologies, technologies, and methodologies to address issues as diverse as technical details or programmatic intervention. From within the practice, talented designers work together to develop fully integrated design solutions that lead to unique design concepts. Every project is ensured to be tailor-made to the site and driven by user experience.

In recent years, Formzero has gained recognition from the architectural industry by winning several national and international awards, notably Planter Box House, which has won the PAM Gold Award and Building of the Year 2020, and the winner of the FuturArc Green Leadership 2019 award.
