The first architect in the world to take on this challenge is a 33-year-old man from Taiwan with degrees in architecture from Cornell University (undergraduate) and Harvard (graduate) named Arthur Huang. Charged with designing the Pavilion of New Fashion for the 2010 Taipei Flora Expo, it was quite by accident that he, along with his research team, discovered their amazing new application for trashed PET bottles.
全球首位嘗試挑戰這個奇想的建築師就來自台灣，他是今年 33 歲、畢業於康乃爾大學建築系、哈佛大學建築研究所的黃謙智，也是本屆花博流行館的設計者，在他與其研發團隊的努力下，意外為 PET 寶特瓶找到了更亮眼的第二春。
