Daisuke Hirabayashi (b. 1980) is a Japanese photographer and architect. He has published a photography book Koechlin House (MACK, 2023), an intimate study of the everyday life of an early private house by Herzog & de Meuron, meditating on the often overlooked lives of buildings after their architects have left. These images encourage us to rethink the details and perspectives we deem ‘architectural’ and leave us newly aware of the long and many-storied lives of buildings. Following his studies at Massachusetts College of Art (BFA) and Harvard University Graduate School of Design (M.Arch), he joined Herzog & de Meuron as an architect in 2008, where he worked on projects such as the Tate Modern Museum extension in London. Since 2017, he runs his own practice in Basel, Switzerland.
