About Artist

Haochen He

Architectural designer by profession, visual storyteller at heart. I began capturing moments with nothing but a cell phone—documenting textures, light, and fleeting human gestures between studio deadlines. Now with a Canon EOS R7 in hand, my lens continues to explore the poetry of space, detail, and daily life. Whether through a facade or a frame, I seek out compositions that balance structure and spontaneity, where design thinking meets instinct, and architecture blurs into the everyday.
