Jonas Prismontas

Jonas Prišmontas (MArch) studied Architecture at the University of East London graduating with a critical thesis about the phenomena of Urban Community Gardens. During his career, Jonas worked in small, medium and large size practices with projects ranging from house extensions to large scale government projects. Tomaso Boano and Jonas Prismontas are the founders of the architectural firm Boano Prišmontas. The studio adopts a creative and hands-on approach as a strategic tool to propose design solutions to the contemporary world. Their body of work often deals with self-built pop-up architecture and art installations. Each project draws inspiration from, and combines, various aspects of art, architecture and technology. Mentionable projects: Minima Moralia, London Festival of Architecture; Quiubox, Milan Design Week; Aidah, Dubai Design Week and 165x165, Unfolding Pavilion during the Venice Biennale of Architecture. We recently won the Arch Challenge Competition and we are currently working with Meanwhile Space, Lambeth Council and the Mayor of London on a pilot project to regenerate abandoned spaces across the UK.
