Alfred Chalousch
Alfred Chalousch , also Chalusch , (born January 19, 1883 in Vienna ; † August 17, 1957 ibid) was an Austrian architect . Married to Rosalia Maria Chalusch geb. Gramann, 1 daughter Hertha (Herta) married Broneder.
Life
Chalousch was the son of the architect and town builder Johann Chalousch. He graduated from the Staatsgewerbeschule in 1904 and then studied from 1904 to 1907 at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna with Otto Wagner . After that, nothing is known about his professional career until the mid-1920s, except that from 1919 he was a member of the Central Association of Architects in Austria and from 1923 a member of the cooperative of visual artists in Vienna. Around 1924 he set up an architectural office in a shared office with his former student colleague Heinrich Schopper , which subsequently built some community buildings for the city of Vienna. The collaboration between the two architects lasted until 1950.
He was buried at the Mauer cemetery.
power
Although the Austrian Künstlerlexikon and the same wording in the Historical Dictionary of Vienna by Felix Czeike indicates that Chalousch built 202 buildings and 51 projects have created, only five council for the City of Vienna are detectable. These made use of romantic echoes and expressive design, before Chalousch turned to simpler facade designs from 1930 onwards, in keeping with the zeitgeist of the time.
