Until the end of the 1920s, he planned and built buildings in the formal language of the New Building , in order to then represent National Socialist ideas politically and creatively . From 1935 he was regional director in the Gau Weser-Ems of the Reich Chamber of Fine Arts and from 1941 chairman of the Oldenburger Kunstverein . In 1942 and 1943 he did military service.
