OFFICE PROFILE

KUBA & VAHEDI is an international architecture firm founded in 2016 by Jan Kubasiewicz and Sheida Vahedi, based in Zurich and Brussels.

Over the years, our activity has focused strongly around residential, hotel and spa projects. Work spaces, active areas and individual furniture pieces are also part of our daily creations. Our realisations are individually developed to suit our clientele, each with their own particularities. We always start from a strong concept, which is used as a guiding principle throughout each project. We design, develop and supervise every project from A to Z.

VISION

Besides a unique and timeless design, it is our conviction that our buildings and creations should above all be ecologically responsible and forward thinking. As architects, our task is to build a sustainable future and think progressively. We live in a time of overconsumption. The construction industry - mostly unknowingly - contributes to a supply chain that is widely polluting. Therefore, we actively seek forward-looking solutions that we can apply with conviction.

Kuba & Vahedi has therefore specialised in building with innovative and non-polluting materials and construction methods. By using regenerative, bio-based and CO2-neutral materials as much as possible, our buildings are sustainable and healthy. We prefer to use circular building systems to reduce or avoid waste.

In our signature style, we apply this philisophy in all our projects. For many years, innovative and high-quality realisations have been values we stand for. Eye for detail, precision in design but also timing and budgeting are for us the foundations on which we build.

ABOUT

Jan Kubasiewicz was born in Belgium where he studied architecture at the St-Lucas institute of Architecture and applied arts in Brussels. During his studies at the Polytechnic University of Milan, he specialised in interior design, restauration and urbanism. Throughout his professional career, Jan gathered diverse experiences in such as Switzerland, Belgium, Italy and the United Arab Emirates. He gained a wide experience and building knowhow, which paved his way to the architectural vision he obtains and applies today.  

Sheida Vahedi graduated as an Architect at the Institut d’Architecture Victor Horta in Brussels. She expanded her knowledge during an exchange year in Milan, refining her knowledge in Architecture, as well as Interior and Industrial design. Her curiosity and enthusiasm led her to live and work several years in London to be followed by Zürich. Sheida has designed and realised various private residences, as well as developing university campuses in Switzerland. 

Together they bring a unique synergy of experience, creativity and craftsmanship, going beyond conventional borders and delivering the end user a unique result.
