Newly Appointed Professors at the Faculty of Architecture
Univ.-Prof. Dipl.-Ing. Florian Fischer-Almannai
Welcome! As of April 2022, Florian Fischer will take over the professorship for Housing and Basics of Design.
Florian Fischer-Almannai, born in Landshut in 1977, runs the office ALMANNAI FISCHER ARCHITEKT*INNEN in Munich together with Reem Almannai and is co-founder of the housing cooperative KOOPERATIVE GROSSSTADT eG. He completed his studies in Constance, Munich (diploma 2004) and Madrid and since 2007 has taught in Munich, Lucerne, Antwerp and Kassel in vers. Positions and constellations taught.
The perhaps still somewhat cryptic keywords 'NASY-KOWO' / 'Techniques of Dwelling', 'OP-OD', 'Video Dwelling' and 'Dinosaur Junior' he would like to successively fill with life in research and teaching from summer onwards, together with the team of the Chair of Housing and Basics of Design. This also involves the attempt to draw research capital from two different practices - that of designing in one's own office and that of conceptualizing and programming experimental residential buildings in the cooperative - which can, however, be skimmed off openly and with a view to the common good. The fact that teaching benefits from this in the best case and can also be a bit of fun is not only a welcome side effect but an essential component of the university's activities.
