Summary
Dillon Lin is a lecturer and architectural theorist with eight years of teaching and practice experience spanning Singapore, Melbourne and Innsbruck. Trained at RMIT (Distinction) and holding a Diplom-Ingenieur (M.Arch) from the University of Innsbruck, he bridges hands-on design work—from early internships at notable local firms to project documentation and competition-winning schemes—with deep engagement in cultural and literary approaches to architecture. At Singapore Polytechnic he leads studio courses, coordinates theory modules and mentors final year projects, while his part-time academic roles in Austria emphasized translating contemporary theoretical discourse into precise graphical and digital representations. Known for shifting focus from built outcomes to ideas, he combines practical drawing and modelling skills with research, publications and outreach to cultivate critical design thinking in students. An intriguing detail: his background includes early planning work related to Zaha Hadid’s One-North project, reflecting long-standing exposure to high-profile, concept-driven urban initiatives.
