Our Office

YAMA is small-scale, interdisciplinary, architecture office based in Kruisem - Belgium. 
Established in 2020 by Stan Guldemont and Lawrence Schietgat.

In our work we endeavor a coherence between the building and its landscape. How it occupies a modest position and reflects the powerful elements. A building with a pure structure, where the human scale is tangible and the pure materials are legible. A structure that connects the spaces but also separates them. A sequence with a hierarchy in which lights and views provide the desired intimacy or openness. Each space tailored to its user, in search of serenity, warmth and authenticity. Each element is stripped down to its essence, down to the smallest detail, so that there is a coherence between the interior, the architecture and the landscape.
