Clouds Architecture Office

Architects

Founded in 2010. Clouds Architecture Office was established in New York by Masayuki Sono (born in 1970), Ostap Rudakevich (born in 1973), and Yuko Sono with the aim of fusing extensive experience from the fields of architecture, academia, and the arts. The firm has completed projects that explore the intersection between conceptual and experiential approaches to the built environment, and has worked on an array of projects ranging from residential and public facilities to public art and space architecture.

The uniqueness of the firm lies in its process-oriented approach involving rigorous research and design studies to meet the highest resolution for the program. The methodology ensures that materialized projects achieve optimal performance and lasting emotional

impact, creating functional and memorable experience. Deep commitment to creativity, teamwork and execution underscore the firm’s approach to architecture projects.

The firm won the 3D Printed Habitat Challenge for Mars (2015) and began joint design with NASA based on the winning concept. In 2018, it announced the design of the AVATAR X LAB, a space development demonstration facility jointly developed by ANA and JAXA, with plans currently progressing. In 2022, the firm worked on the 010 BUILDING, a mixed-use facility in Fukuoka.
