Yuichiro Onuma
is a Japanese architect based in Brussels, Belgium.
After his education in Keio University SFC–Shigeru Ban Lab (JP) and in the Oslo School of Architecture and Design (NO), he worked at the Brussels-based architecture firm OFFICE Kersten Geers David Van Severen for 8 years before starting his own practice.
In his practice, each project is seen as a part of a continuous search for an architecture of experience. Reducing architecture to its essential elements, the works aim to develop simple gestures within a clear architectural order, delicately balancing a sense of playfulness and the logical in an economically efficient manner. This results in a timeless architecture which can withstand the ever-changing conditions of our society.
His practice strongly believes in a collaborative process – a belief built on his appreciation of multiplicities of voices and opinions which was nourtured through his international upbringing that exposed him to various lifestyles and cultures.
Yuichiro is also one of the four co-founders of the architecture collective UM based between Brussles, Belgium and Tokyo, Japan.
