Pan- Projects

PAN- PROJECTS is an architectural design practice co-founded by Japanese architect duo Yuriko Yagi and Kazumasa Takada. Established in Copenhagen in 2017, the studio moved its base to London in 2019 where it continues to actively engage in international projects. PAN- PROJECTS is dedicated to design that celebrates the cultural diversity and uniqueness of our living world. The studio conceives architecture as an art of fabrication. We create architecture holistically, carefully combining elements we believe should be viewed as works of art in their own right. This is achieved through genuine collaboration with multidisciplinary creators and clients from various backgrounds, recognising the distinct value they bring to each project. The practice has been awarded several international architectural recognitions for its works. Recent exhibitions and awards include; Dezeen Award Emerging Architecture studio Longlist (UK, 2021), a large-scale installation The Matter Of Facts at the National Art Center of Tokyo (JP, 2021), Honourable mention and exhibition at Venice Biennale, Young European Architects (2021, IT) and Under-35 Architects exhibition (JP, 2019). Since early 2019, the studio engages in the experimental research project entitled Architecture of By-products which explores urban wastes as potential architectural materials and urban story- teller. The research has developed into experimental concepts that the studio deliberately share the ideas through a series of public lectures as well as constructing pavilions and installations.
