Jean Paul Sebuhayi Uwase

Jean Paul Sebuhayi joined MASS in 2013 and currently serves as a Principal in the Kigali office. He holds a Bachelor of Architecture from the Kigali Institute of Science and Technology and is a registered architect with the Rwanda Institute of Architects. Having been educated in the first class of architects in Rwanda where the numbers are still quite small, he believes that everyone deserves to experience beautiful design. Thus, he strives to best serve the community through consultation and engagement early in the design process.

At MASS, Jean Paul has led multidisciplinary teams to create sustainable designs for the Regional Centre of Excellence in Biomedical Engineering and eHealth, the Rwanda Institute for Conservation Agriculture in Rwanda, and Samajik Health Science Institute & Research Centre in Dhaka, Bangladesh. He has also supported design teams as an Architect for various other projects such as the Kigali Genocide Memorial, Masaka Affordable Housing, Butaro Doctors’ Sharehousing, and the Butaro Cancer Center of Excellence. Currently, Jean Paul is also supporting the team to carry out construction administration of the Regional Centre of Excellence in Biomedical Engineering and eHealth and Munini District Hospital, the first implementation of National design standards designed by MASS for Rwanda’s Ministry of Health in 2014.
