Gabe Wong
PANAMA
Gabriel “Gabe” Wong is a multidisciplinary creative powerhouse. As an architect, Gabe is Director of Design at Atelier 1985, a Panama-based architecture firm he runs with his wife. Passionate for academia, he has over a decade of experience teaching drawing and design courses at university level.
He is an accomplished artist with artwork present in private collections in all continents and that has been presented to heads of state and relevant global figures such as Pope Francis and the President of China. He served as book scribe for the historic records of the churches in Panama’s colonial Old Quarters (Casco Viejo). Some of his corporate collaborations include Cable and Wireless, Nike and Boeing.
His work combines influences from his multiple fields of interest and cultural heritages; it is a reflection of his story: a XXI century Chinese-Panamanian architect.
