ABOUT ME
MY PROFESSIONAL JOURNEY
Even as a young boy, drawing was my greatest passion – and it was this creative spark that led me, in 1984, to the HTL Linz to study advertising design. One special highlight from that time: I was among the winners of the XVIII HTL Drawing and Painting Competition organized by the Hypothekenbank of Upper Austria. The theme was “Linz 2000” – and my work was awarded a prize of 500 Schillings and a certificate, which was presented to me in a formal ceremony by Governor Dr. Josef Pühringer.
A moment I still remember fondly to this day.

THE START OF MY PROFESSIONAL CAREER
My serious professional journey began in 1990 at SUTER+SUTER, a renowned Swiss architectural firm and general planner with a branch in Linz.
There, I worked as an interior architect and architectural draftsman, contributing to a range of exciting projects.
Some of the planning projects I was involved in included:
• the General Hospital Linz (Allgemeines Krankenhaus Linz)
• the Nursing School Linz (Krankenpflegeschule Linz)
• the Internorm facility in Oedt/Traun
• and the Donautor/Landgraf project in Linz
This period not only gave me valuable professional experience but also shaped my sense of space, structure, and design in a lasting way.
