Ludwig Tremmel (born May 24, 1875 in Vienna ; † December 1, 1946 there ) was an Austrian architect .

Life

Tremmel attended the State Trade School in Vienna and from 1895 to 1898 the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna . He was also a student of Victor Luntz . From 1904 to 1907 he was employed as an architect by the Lower Austrian Lieutenancy and built several large buildings during this time. Then he went to Pilsen in Bohemia , where he was a teacher at the State Trade School until the end of the monarchy in 1918 and the chief architect of the Škoda factory . After returning to Vienna, he taught at the technical and commercial federal college from 1919 to 1939 and also worked as a freelance architect, including for the municipality of Vienna.

meaning

Ludwig Tremmel had been a teacher of Victor Luntz at the academy , who was oriented towards tradition and was thus an opponent of Otto Wagner's reform efforts . Accordingly, Tremmel's early buildings were also late historical and neo-baroque. Tremmel was still building decorative buildings in the Pilsen period, and even the industrial buildings had a representative character with historical tendencies. It was only after the First World War that Tremmel gradually adapted to modernism, although his residential buildings continued to have expressionist and decorative features.
