Zoe Zhang is a designer and emerging media artist from Tianjin, China. She is currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Media Arts & Technology (MAT) at the University of California, Santa Barbara, where she explores the intersection of spatial design, computation, and interactive systems.
Zoe received her Bachelor’s degree in Interior Design from the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD), studying across its Hong Kong, Savannah, and Atlanta campuses. This multicultural academic experience shaped her global design perspective and deepened her understanding of how culture influences spatial experience.
Her work now extends beyond physical interiors into computational space. Combining architectural sensibility with generative media, she explores themes such as memory, perception, time, and emotional resonance through interactive installations, shader-based systems, and AI-assisted workflows.
Zoe is proficient in Photoshop, Illustrator, Revit, SketchUp, and creative coding environments such as p5.js and GLSL. She believes that space is not static — it is experiential, responsive, and deeply tied to human memory.
