Sieben also worked in the areas of interior design and building materials . He worked as an architect in Aachen with Arnold Königs and Karl Henrici . Seven is considered one of the teachers of the architect Emil Fahrenkamp .

Seven designs included a kindergarten on Deliusstrasse in Aachen (1907/1908), the two stately homes Nizzaallee 2 and 4 (1910), the Königshügel house of the Lammertz family (1913/1914) on behalf of Otto von Pelser-Berensberg. , today guest house of the RWTH Aachen, and together with Erwin Kropp built the former building of the machine tool laboratory WZL of the RWTH Aachen on the Wüllnerstraße (1922–1924) as well as the farm building of the former winery Förster in Trier . In the field of interior design, it was above all representative town and country houses that Sieben gave a contemporary character. For example, the country houses Hupertz, Schröder, Eisler and Alo Wilden in Aachen as well as the house of the brewery owner Nicolaus Caspary in Trier bear witness to Sieben's ideas about modern spatial art.
