Udi (Ehud) Kassif (b. 1961) began his studies in fine art at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna, later completing his architectural training at Bezalel and the AA School of Architecture in London. Since 1994, he has been a founding partner alongside Ganit Mayslits Kassif, joined in 2020 by Maor Roytman at Mayslits Kassif Roytman Architects.

For Kassif, writing and drawing are lifelong practices that continually intersect with his architectural vision and his ongoing philosophical inquiry into Specificity.
