About Roger Xiao
Artist & Architect
Background
I am an artist and architect specializing in house design, including both exterior and interior work. My journey in architecture began in China, where I designed numerous buildings before immigrating to Canada.
Design Philosophy
I believe that the style of a house needs to be pure and harmonious. This philosophy guides every project I undertake. My goal is to complete each work from interior design to landscaping, ensuring a cohesive vision throughout.
A home should feel unified—where the interior speaks to the exterior, and the landscaping extends the living space into nature. This holistic approach creates spaces that are not only beautiful but also deeply livable.
Sketch Art
Beyond architectural design, I am passionate about sketching. I often create sketches while traveling, capturing the essence of places through quick studies. During a summer trip around Northern America, I completed about 100 sketches documenting the diverse architecture and landscapes I encountered.
