Zumpe was born as the son of the builder Alfred Zumpe in Dresden. He grew up with his older brother Günter Zumpe in Lomnitz and attended the Dreikönigschule in Dresden , which he graduated from high school in 1949. Zumpe studied architecture at the Technical University of Dresden from 1949 to 1955 and then worked as a scientific assistant to Wolfgang Rauda and Rolf Göpfert . He received his doctorate in 1961 with the dissertation Living on various levels - a contribution to the development of new forms of living . From 1963 to 1964 Zumpe took on a teaching position for buildings in the health sector and from 1966 to 1969 a teaching position for housing construction at the Technical University of Dresden.

Zumpe went to Berlin in the early 1960s, where he worked as a research assistant at the GDR Building Academy and finally became project manager and head of a design office for the Berlin Housing Combine. Numerous residential buildings were built in Berlin, including the residential high-rises on Fischerinsel , "designed in the ground plan as a 'staggered twin type'", in which for the first time "an open system for the flexible formation of apartment floor plans was used" and for the first time "three-part coated wall panels with an exterior surface from washed natural stone chippings ”. The skyscrapers were also featured on a GDR postage stamp in 1980. Other Berlin buildings of these years were the residential high-rise buildings on Holzmarktstrasse and the Karl-Liebknecht-Strasse complex .

Parallel to his work in the housing combine, Zumpe completed his habilitation , which was published in 1968 under the title Development Problems of Urban Housing in Modern Architecture . An appointment as professor for the design of buildings and building theory and thus as successor to Rolf Göpfert at the Technical University of Dresden in 1969 failed “because of his frank criticism of the building policy of the time”. In 1972 he took over his father's construction company in Dresden. In the same year he and Horst Witter founded a planning office affiliated to the construction company, which was expropriated after a short time. Zumpe became head of the nationalized company in association with the housing association and was active in a variety of ways in the 1970s and 1980s, for example he reconstructed Eckberg Castle and designed the high-rise residential buildings at Ernst-Thälmann-Park Berlin. Since the 1970s he has devoted himself in particular to monolithic residential construction with point access and designed series such as the arrow house, the atrium house and the point house as an alternative to the simple prefabricated building. The experimental building Zwölfeckhaus , which was implemented in Radeberg, Ottendorf-Okrilla and Arnsdorf, developed into the “pilgrimage of architects who wanted to get more quality from industrial construction”. At the TU Dresden he gave lectures on industrial monolith construction and held guest lectures at the University of Architecture and Construction Weimar and the University of Fine Arts in Berlin .

In 1991 Zumpes architecture office was re-privatized. Together with Jörg Düsterhöft and Hartmut Richter, Zumpe formed the architectural office Zumpe + Partner in 1992 , from 1996 Zumpe-Düsterhöft-Richter Architekten , from which he left in 2001. Since 1992 Zumpe has held the honorary professorship for the design of buildings at the Faculty of Architecture at the Technical University of Dresden . Also in 1992 he became chairman of the Association of German Architects in the Dresden administrative region and a member of the BDA's Saxony State Board. In 2011 Zumpe resigned from office; he is an honorary member of the BDA Saxony. In 2009, his feasibility study for a new concert hall instead of the renovation of the Dresden Kulturpalast caused controversy in Dresden.

Zumpe is married, has two children and lives in Dresden.
