Since becoming a member of the United Architects of the Philippines, Richard Ong has continued to build upon his skills and breadth of experience in design and architecture. He worked on the first NBA standard multi-purpose arena in the Philippines, the SM Mall of Asia Arena, and led the design of various large industrial projects in Singapore. Richard then immigrated to Canada to further develop his construction detailing and standards knowledge.

Before joining ft3 in 2023, Richard worked as an architectural technologist on multi-family projects across British Columbia and Winnipeg, MB. Through this work, he developed a reputation for precision and thoroughness in AutoCAD and Sketchup, including design, detailing, and construction drawing coordination.

Richard intends to continue building upon his architectural technology experience and construction process familiarization. Additionally, he finds inspiration in green architecture—check out Paolo Soleri’s Arcosanti project—and is excited to lend himself to projects prioritizing sustainable, innovative, and forward-thinking design.
