Her collaborative practice, SCHAUM/SHIEH, is based in New York City and Houston, TX. Ms. Shieh’s interests extend between architecture and the city; SCHAUM/SHIEH’s speculative project, Sponge Urbanism, projected an urban transformation of a neighborhood in Detroit, a fragment of which was built as a prototype and exhibited at the 2012 Venice Architecture Biennale. Her current work includes institutional, commercial, and residential projects. Ms. Shieh trained in the offices of Abalos&Herreros in Madrid, ARO, and Stan Allen Architect in New York City. She has taught design and history/theory courses at the University of Michigan (where she was the 2009-2010 Taubman Fellow), Pratt Institute, and the Cooper Union. Ms. Shieh is licensed in the state of New York.
