Masayuki Sono
Clouds Architecture Office (Clouds AO) is a multidisciplinary architecture practice founded in 2010 by Masayuki Sono and Ostap Rudakevych. Based in New York City, the firm is known for its blend of rigorous research, speculative thinking, and client-driven design. Their work ranges from everyday architectural interiors to imaginative proposals—such as space labs, floating structures, icy habitats on Mars, and conceptual “floating cities.” What ties their projects together is a process-oriented approach: each design emerges from close attention to context, material, form, and the desire to evoke emotional or cognitive experiences. Clouds AO has received recognition and awards for several projects, including the AIA New York Honor Awards.
