Will Wong, a native New Yorker, has always been intrigued by the constant evolution of the city’s skyline and infrastructure. He took hand drafting elective courses in high school, a decision that kicked off his career. 

Having spent his whole life surrounded by construction, Will is interested in the critical and complex process of building in a dense urban environment. His philosophy emphasizes durable and enduring designs that promote public interaction. A leader project management across the firm’s workplace, retail, academic, and non-profit projects, he has led work for a diverse set of clients including Li & Fung, Columbia University, Abrams Books, and Hermès of Paris.

On his inaugural project at Spacesmith, Will coordinated and oversaw the buildout of the 100,000-square-foot, LEED Gold-certified offices for Global Brands Group in the Empire State Building. His management of Halletts Point—a mixed-use residential development in Queens, with a playroom that his daughter had the chance to enjoy—displays his vast understanding of code compliance and his unwavering desire to contribute to spaces that benefit communities.

Will holds a Bachelor of Architecture from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. His commitment to sustainability transcends his work and permeates personal life; he is currently teaching his family the benefits of backyard composting.
