Anyoji Beltrando

What Anyoji Beltrando does

Anyoji Beltrando is a Paris-based architecture and urban planning agency founded in 2011 by Japanese-trained architect Tomoko Anyoji and French urbanist Yannick Beltrando (formerly of APUR and the cabinet of Deputy Mayor Pierre Mansat). The firm operates across five service lines — Urbanisme, Architecture, Espace Public, Participation, and Stratégie — addressing all scales from metropolitan strategy to architectural intervention, with a distinctive emphasis on urban recycling, bioclimatic design, and participatory processes. It serves primarily public-sector clients including the Ville de Paris, Paris et Métropole Aménagement, EPA Euroméditerranée, Paris Habitat OPH, the Brussels SAU, and municipalities such as Montreuil, delivering projects such as the PLU bioclimatique de Paris, the Village des Médias for Paris 2024, the transformation of Caserne de Reuilly, the St-Vincent-de-Paul redevelopment (including the famous 'Les Grands Voisins' temporary occupation), and the Usquare project in Brussels.

The agency is organized as an independent partnership with no external investment or parent company, operating from its Belleville headquarters (relocated in 2024) with approximately 17 named professionals including two founders, two associate project directors, architects, urbanists, an administrative lead, and student trainees. Its commercial model is project-based professional services revenue earned through French and Belgian public procurement processes — competitive tenders, consultations, and direct commissions — with project fees determined per engagement and no published standard pricing.

Methodologically, Anyoji Beltrando differentiates through multi-scalar integration, treating architecture and urbanism as a continuum rather than separate disciplines, and through specialized expertise in transitional/temporary urbanism, urban recycling, and participatory co-design with residents and elected officials. The firm's intellectual capital was formalized in the 2022 monograph 'AB Z' (éditions rue du Bouquet), and its practice has been recognized through the Palmarès des Jeunes Urbanistes 2012, Pyramides d'Argent Île-de-France 2016, Définis Urbains 2017, and most recently the Médaille de l'Urbanisme 2025 from the Académie d'Architecture. Delivered projects have achieved Ecoquartier certification (St-Vincent-de-Paul 1) and NF Habitat HQE with E3 C1 labeling (Transformation Porte de Vanves).
