Kuhn Fischer Partner (KFP) was an architecture firm that had a major impact on residential construction in the greater Zurich area with the construction of over 2,000 apartments. The office emerged in 1990 from Kuhn Fischer Hungerbühler or Kuhn + Stahel Architects and was based in Zurich. In 2009 the company formed a joint venture with ATP and was incorporated as ATP Zurich in 2010 .
history
The founding of KFP goes back to the early sixties. In April 1962, Niklaus Kuhn founded the company Kuhn + Stahel Architects together with his partner at the time, Jörg Stahel . After Jörg Stahel left at the beginning of 1989, Niklaus Kuhn and his two long-term employees Walter Fischer and Ruedi Hungerbühler founded Kuhn Fischer Hungerbühler Architekten AG . In 1990 the unexpected death of Ruedi Hungerbühler left a gap that was closed in 1991 when Peter Winistörfer joined the management team. From 1990 the architecture office called itself Kuhn Fischer Partner. Niklaus Kuhn was a member of the Zurich working group for urban development , from 1990–91 he sat for the EPP in the National Council .
