This was followed by a visit to the arts and crafts school in Krefeld, which he graduated with "distinction". From 1909 to 1911 he studied architecture for four semesters at the Technical University of Darmstadt .

From January 1, 1914, Pinand worked several times as a teacher at the (higher) state building school and the trade school in Darmstadt, a predecessor of the Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences , and in 1919 was entrusted with setting up the Darmstadt School of Applied Arts. In between he was active as a freelance architect. In the 1920s he built numerous houses, especially in Darmstadt, and various churches, especially for the Pallottine order .

On October 1, 1933, he was dismissed from civil service as a church builder by the National Socialists . In the following years until the end of 1945 he worked as a private architect.

Pinand was appointed to the chair for architecture at the Technical University of Darmstadt with a certificate dated April 17, 1946, retroactively to January 1, 1946 . Half of Pinand succeeded the dismissed professor Karl Lieser . The other half of the professorship was filled at the same time as Ernst Neufert . In the course of 1946 both half professorships were increased to 100%. Pinand's professorship was given the title “ Design and Church Building ”.

From 1947 to 1949 he was dean of the architecture faculty at the Technical University of Darmstadt. After he had refused to retire at the age of 68, he was not retired until April 1, 1958.

He was a devout Catholic .
