Onomiau (Office for Nomadic Architecture)
is a pop primitive architectural and design practice
created in 2019 by Noël Picaper. Based currently in Paris,
the studio experiments a playful and relaxed style of spatial interventions
that at the same time respects the symbolism of primitive architecture,
constantly trying to explore new ways of architectural production.


Noël Picaper worked
at Raum 404 in 2016 (Zürich)
at Junya Ishigami in 2017 (Tokyo)
and at l’AUC in 2018 (Paris).

Sensible aux notions de rituels, de croyances et de cycles, Noël Picaper élabore des masques pour interroger nos représentations et reconsidérer notre rapport à l’incertitude.

À la frontière entre architecture, art et biologie, sa pratique dresse le portrait d’un monde fait de paysages étranges où l’humain et son milieu naturel cohabitent selon de nouvelles modalités.

Noël Picaper crée à Paris en 2019, Onomiau, un organisme s’intéressant aux fictions architecturales et aux curiosités spatiales.
