Join us for an immersive Body of Work presentation by Sung Ho Kim, Co-Director of Axi:Omi, hosted within the firm’s studio at Tyler Village. This unique setting places attendees directly inside the working environment where architectural ideas are developed, tested, and translated into built work.

Sung Ho Kim’s studio functions as a physical manifestation of the design process itself. Attendees will be surrounded by an active landscape of architectural thinking, numerous physical models, drawings, studies, and digital assets on display, offering insight into how research, speculation, and rigorous inquiry evolve into real-world architectural outcomes. The presentation will explore Axi:Omi’s interdisciplinary approach to architecture, operating at the intersection of art, media, environment, and culture, and how this framework informs both conceptual research and built projects.

The program also highlights Kim’s ongoing cycle between education and practice. As Architecture Program Director at Kent State University, Kim continually moves between teaching, student research, and professional work, allowing each to inform the other. This reciprocal process strengthens architectural thinking and reinforces architecture’s responsibility to the public realm.

This event offers a rare opportunity to engage with architecture not only through images and discussion, but through direct immersion in the space where ideas are made, providing meaningful insight for architects, designers, planners, students, and anyone interested in the role of architecture as both a civic and cultural practice.
