WHY Creative Director, Kulapat Yantrasast

Kulapat Yantrasast is a thought-leader and practitioner in the fields of architecture, art, and design. Originially from Thailand and now based in Los Angeles, he is the founding partner and Creative Director of wHY, a multidisciplinary design practice organized into dedicated workshops: Buildings, Landscape, Museums, Objects, and Ideas. His museum projects include the Grand Rapids Art Museum, the expansion of the Speed Art Museum in Louisville, KT, gallery design and planning for Harvard Art Museums and the Art Institute of Chicago, and currently a major gallery renovation of the Rockefeller Wing of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. He and Zuckerman discuss museums as a place where time stands still, the sexiness and honesty of parking structures, the ease and seduction of digital solutions, loving cities, redefining everything, and what “missing your own self” feels like!

32. Kulapat Yantrasast

On the tail of the re-opening of Los Angeles after the global pandemic and on the eve of the protests over the unjust death of George Floyd, Robyn and Alison interview Los Angeles-based architect Kulapat Yantrasast at his Venice, California home.  Yantrasast has worked on shaping Los Angeles with projects such as the ICA LA, Marciano Art Foundation and Frieze LA, and is currently working on a renovation of the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s AAOA galleries in New York, amongst dozens of other projects globally. He talks openly about the eight years he spent under Japanese starchitect Todao Ando, and about coming to California to make a name of his own. His thought-provoking philosophies about everything from food as it relates to architecture to his eclectic fashion sense will capture your attention and make you think.
