After working for Barkow Leibinger Architects and the Neue Nationalgalerie's architecture exhibitions department in Berlin, with Fotini Lazaridou-Hatzigoga, he founded PROGRAM red in 2006, a non-commercial initiative for art and architecture collaborations.

Nature as the point of departure for his work and the scientific methodology as his artistic approach are combined in his works with a clear aesthetic position that does actually suggest the notion of a living sculpture. As might be expected, there is in his work a concern for the living being itself, for the animal as part of our world. In addition to his own work, he is a member of the artist collective ""Das Numen"". Ryan Roark is an architectural designer and writer and Fellow of Georgia Tech fro 2019-2021.
