Peter P. Schweger
Peter Paul Schweger (* 1935 in Mediasch , Romania ) is a German-Austrian architect and co-founder and namesake of the architectural offices Schweger associated architects, Schweger + Partner and Schweger Architekten GmbH.
Career
Schweger studied at the Budapest University of Technology (today: Budapest University of Technology and Economics ) and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich , where he graduated in 1959. He then worked in various architecture offices in Zurich and made a name for himself with his own competition entries.
After a successful appraisal for the new building for the Hamburg University of Applied Sciences, he went to Hamburg as a young architect and in 1964 founded a working group with Heinz Graaf , an experienced Hamburg architect. In 1968 a partnership emerged from this, which continued under different company names and with different partners and is known today as Schweger Architects.
Several teaching positions took him from 1968 to 1971 at the HfBK in Hamburg and at the University of Hanover. From 1972 to 2000 he held the professorship at the chair for building science and design at the University of Hanover.
He has been a member of the Free Academy of the Arts Hamburg since 1969 , in 1971 he was appointed to the BDA Association of German Architects , in 2009 he was awarded the Order of Merit of the Republic of Hungary , and in 2010 he was awarded the Fritz Schumacher Prize .
He has served as a judge and chairman in a large number of architectural competitions, and numerous buildings and projects in his offices have been awarded prizes. For example, in 2011 the expansion of the Saxon Main State Archives was awarded a first-ever and internationally recognized architecture prize “Passive House”, and in 2011 the Main Tower , which was completed in 2001, was subsequently certified as an existing building with LEED Gold.
Peter P. Schweger lives in Hamburg and runs the Schweger Architekten GmbH office with several partners.
