Dahms is the third son of four children from the Hamburg teachers. He lost his father during the Second World War . He and his siblings had been evacuated to the Ore Mountains . In 1947 the family fled back to Hamburg.

After graduating from high school in Hamburg, he studied architecture at the University of Braunschweig from 1957 to 1964 . After graduating from Dieter Oesterlen , he worked at the chair for building theory and design of Professor Zdengo Strizic, an architect from the Braunschweig School , as a research assistant. He then trained as a government master builder in Stuttgart. During this training, he assisted Professor Rolf Gutbrod at the Institute for Interior Design and Design at the University of Stuttgart . In 1970 he was Councilor in Baden-Wuerttemberg. Here he planned for the building management under Horst Linde .

In 1973 he became a professor at the Department of Architecture (later School of Architecture ) at the University of Bremen . He set up the laboratory for building theory and design in the architecture department and until 2003 taught building and room design, construction planning in interior construction and design.

In order to reform the degree programs, he performed tasks in Expert Commission I for the development of an integrated degree program in urban development and transport planning with local, regional and state planning for a comprehensive university in Bremen and in the clearing center for planning a postgraduate course in architecture at the University of Art and Design Music Bremen .
At the University of Bremen, he conducted research in the fields of housing and university construction.

In addition, Dahms worked as a freelance architect, from 1994 in shared office with the architect Frank Sieber. With his architecture office he worked on tasks relating to housing construction, school construction, university construction, museum construction and urban planning. The increase in the M-wing of the University of Bremen and the departmental libraries in the inner courtyard are significant here. The modern facade of this storey in glass and gray parapet elements as well as the transparent roof stand in contrast to the historical facade.
He successfully took part in many ideas competitions for structural and urban development measures and produced a number of reports and catalogs.

Dahms is married to the artist Irmgard Dahms; both have two children.
