The Financial Times architecture critic, Edwin Heathcote writes of our two buildings A4 and B4, Kohn has clearly had fun. The Guardian architecture critic Oliver Wainwright describes David Kohn Architects' two buildings for the Greenwich Design District as a full-on PoMo revival. David Kohn has contributed a capriccio drawing to the Belgian Pavilion at the 2021 Venice Biennale.
Invited by long-term collaborator Bovenbouw Architectuur, David's drawing "London 2121" responds to the question "What kind of city does your great design work belong to?"

David Kohn Architects has been shortlisted in an open international competition to refurbish the Grade I Listed Sainsbury Wing of the National Gallery.
The project is timed to coincide with the gallery's bicentenary in 2024 and includes a range of upgrades to the Robert Venturi and Denise Scott Brown-designed wing along with improvements to public spaces surrounding the wider museum.

Services
David Kohn Architects is a London-based practice established in 2007, working internationally on arts, education and residential projects. Excellence in design is pursued through collaborating closely with our clients, consultant teams, contractors and end users. Innovation is cultivated through office-based and academic research into carbon reduction, reuse and the cultural contexts of each project.
Contemporary art dealers are conservative in their architectural preferences. Most galleries conform to one of two long-established mod- els: the capacious and characterful industrial building, presented as found, or the window- less white cube where, as Brian O'Doherty noted 40 years ago, sequestration from the outside world helps to sanctify the art.
David founded the practice in 2007 and has over 20 years multi-disciplinary team leadership experience and sets the design direction of all projects. He is particularly interested in collaboration, having worked with artists Rosalind Nashashibi, Fiona Banner, Simon Fujiwara and Pablo Bronstein. David is a committed educator and lectures internationally on architecture and design.
DKA runs a continuous recruitment process and welcomes applications at any time. The practice offers suitable candidates the opportunity to work on innovative projects for leading clients who value design. Speculative applications should be made via our job board here. As part of its constant recruitment process, DKA welcomes applications at any time for non-architectural roles.
