Kfir Gluzberg
Principal, Kilogram Studio

Kfir Gluzberg is an architect, designer, and teacher. Originally from Israel, Gluzberg was raised in Toronto and in 2014, he founded Kilogram Studio. Gluzberg’s focus on material research and fabrication began during several years of travel, schooling, and professional work abroad. Gluzberg balanced professional work and licensure with his continued research including his exhibited entry Unfolded Box at the Venice Biennale at the Canadian Pavilion, which explored his own immigrant identity. Kilogram’s work is similarly based on material testing and conceptual analogy. He was a 2019 Finalist in the Design Exchange Emerging Design Competition, and Kilogram was awarded the 2019 Best in Canada Award for Split Rock. Gluzberg sees his role as architect and community member and extends his work into teaching and volunteerism. He is a water polo player on Toronto’s LGBTQ+ water polo team, the Toronto Triggerfish.
