Current Interests is dedicated to the social, spatial, and material liveliness of architecture. They believe building is a process of collaboration and exchange that connects the world of design with the craft and economies of construction.

Founded in 2017 by Matthew Au and Mira Henry, Current Interests draws on the deep knowledge each brings to the partnership. Together, Au and Henry have designed and constructed a wide range of complex building programs, including public cultural projects, residences, commercial spaces, and museum exhibitions. Current Interests seeks meaningful relationships with clients and works toward aesthetically nuanced projects of all scales.

As a creative collaboration, Au and Henry’s work straddles important lines in the field and has been published, exhibited, and recognized internationally. In 2023 Au and Henry authored the book Gathering: Ongoing Work by Current Interests, published by Princeton School of Architecture Press. Most recently, Current Interests received Architectural Record’s 2025 Design Vanguard Award. Au and Henry are design faculty at Southern California Institute for Architecture and have had visiting faculty appointments at Princeton University and Harvard Graduate School of Design.
