About
Great residential design isn't about the architect's vision imposed on a space. It begins with a genuine curiosity about how you live — how light moves through your mornings, how your home absorbs the chaos of daily life, how a room can feel both considered and entirely yours. The architecture follows from that. Not the other way around.

Albert Wang, AIA
Principal & Founder
Design has been a constant in Albert's life long before architecture. He began his career as a page designer at the Detroit Free Press, created media for a special needs high school in Boston, and spent years in real estate marketing — each role sharpening his instinct for visual communication and human-centered thinking.
That thread led naturally to architecture. During ten years as a Project Architect at WJW Architects, Albert led a wide range of housing and community projects — multifamily, senior living, mixed-use, and supportive housing — developing a deep understanding of how buildings shape the daily lives of the people inside them.
With Baba Architects, he brings that same rigor and curiosity to residential work — designing homes in Chicago and the surrounding Chicago suburbs that are modern, considered, and built to last.
Albert holds a Master of Architecture from the New School of Architecture & Design and a BA from Boston College. He is a licensed architect in Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, and Massachusetts, and an active AIA member.
