Background

About Zean Wei

I’m an Architect at Gensler Toronto with experience spanning all phases of design—from early concept through construction closeout. I contribute across multiple aspects of project delivery, including technical coordination, code research, drawing documentation, and consultant engagement. Before joining Gensler, I gained experience working with global architecture firms in China, Japan, and the UK. These early roles shaped my appreciation for cross-cultural design thinking, precision, and project delivery in different urban contexts. I’m particularly interested in how small, well-considered technical decisions shape the built environment. I enjoy helping translate design ideas into clear, buildable outcomes by asking thoughtful questions, organizing information, and keeping teams aligned. I completed the ExAC in 2024 and am currently on track for OAA licensure. My focus continues to deepen in the areas of building envelope, technical workflows, and collaborative project execution.
