Kazuyo Sejima was born in 1956 in Mito, Ibaraki, Japan. After graduating from Japan Women’s University in 1979 and completing her Master's of Architecture in 1981, she went on to work at Toyo Ito and Associates until 1987. That year she established Kazuyo Sejima & Associates and hired Ryue Nishizawa to work alongside her. In 1995, the pair founded SANAA (Sejima and Nishizawa and Associates).
