He was a student of Eduard Ludwig and was in close friendly contact with Ludwig Mies van der Rohe .
In 1959, Fritjof Schliephacke became known for his design of a floor lamp made of commercially available industrial parts, also known as the “Berlin Frying Pan”. In 1969 he designed the Berlin street wells for hand-operated groundwater pumping on behalf of the then Senate Building Director Hans C. Müller . In addition to the name “Schliephackebrunnen”, this “Rümmler-Pump”, named after the head of the Senate Street Directorate, is widespread in the streets of Berlin. As an architect, he designed the terraced residential high-rise built in 1970/1971 with commercial underlay in Kleiststrasse 5/6 in Berlin-Schöneberg . A sculpture of him from 1974 stands on the site of the abandoned Marienfelde sewage treatment plant.
