Kim Võ is a doctoral student in Architecture, Landscape Architecture, and Urban Planning. His research focuses on the negotiation between modernization and museification of the built environment in the nineteenth-century Italian peninsula, specifically through archaeological reappropriations, preservation campaigns, and historicist reconstructions. He received professional architecture training at the Hồ Chí Minh City University of Architecture, Vietnam, and a Master of Architecture at the University of Melbourne, Australia. During his time at Harvard, Kim has worked on the influence of scientific observation techniques on architectural and design conventions, the parallel histories of architecture and museology, and the transformation of architectural discourse during the emergence of modern geological and archaeological frameworks.
