  • David Kohn (born 3 October 1972) is a British architect. His practice, David Kohn Architects, is based in London and works internationally on arts, education and residential projects.

    Established in 2007, the practice has won a number of awards including Young Architect of the Year 2009 from Building Design magazine[1] and INSIDE World Interior of the Year in 2013.[2]

    Red House[3] was named House of the Year by the Royal Institute of British Architects in 2022.[4]

    Current projects include new market buildings at Birmingham Smithfield,[5] a new home for Hasselt University’s architecture faculty[6] and the redevelopment of Modern Art Oxford.[7]

    Kohn was born in Cape Town and studied architecture at the University of Cambridge and at Columbia University GSAPP, New York, as a Fulbright Scholar. He taught architecture at the Sir John Cass School of Art, Architecture and Design, between 2003 and 2013 and was a visiting professor at KU Leuven between 2014 and 2016.

    Kohn is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts and a Trustee of Stratford Circus Arts Centre.[citation needed]
