Huang Baoyu (Chinese: 黃寶瑜; 1918–2000) was a Taiwanese artist, calligrapher and architect, known for designing the National Palace Museum in Taipei, Taiwan.[1][2] His design for the museum was chosen after the original competition winner, Wang Da-hong, refused to modify his design to comply with the government's wishes.[3] Huang specialised in the traditional Chinese palace style, and was the favourite architect of former leader, Chiang Kai-shek.[4]

Huang served as Chairman of the architecture department of the Chung Yuan Christian College.[5] He also served in a number of public institutions, working on urban planning projects such as Shimen Reservoir back pool area layout plan (1962), Yangming National Park Project (1963), Kaohsiung Lianchi Lake Scenic Area Plan (1966) and Forest Garden Construction Plan (1966).[6]

Huang came to Taiwan from China in 1949, when he was appointed as a lecturer at the Provincial Institute of Technology.[7]
