Rem Koolhaas (Rotterdam, 1944) ha fondato OMA nel 1975 insieme a Elia, Zoe Zenghelis e Madelon Vriesendorp. Si è laureato alla Architectural Association di Londra e nel 1978 ha pubblicato Delirious New York: A Retroactive Manifesto for Manhattan. Nel 1995, il suo libro S, M, L, XL riassumeva il lavoro di OMA in "un romanzo sull'architettura". Dirige il lavoro sia di OMA che di AMO, il ramo di ricerca di OMA, operando in aree al di fuori del regno dell'architettura. La sua opera comprende il Garage Museum of Contemporary Art di Mosca (2015), la Fondazione Prada di Milano (2015), la sede centrale per China Central Television (CCTV) a Pechino (2012), Casa da Musica a Porto (2005), Seattle Central Library (2004), e l'ambasciata olandese a Berlino (2003). I progetti attuali includono la sede della Qatar Foundation, la Biblioteca Nazionale del Qatar, il Taipei Performing Arts Centre, un nuovo edificio per Axel Springer a Berlino e la fabbrica di Manchester. Koolhaas è professore all'Università di Harvard e nel 2014 è stato direttore della 14a Mostra Internazionale di Architettura della Biennale di Venezia, intitolata Fundamentals.
