Josef
Paul Kleihues
There
are three things linking the architect Josef Paul Kleihues
and FSB: firstly, he was born in Rheine (in 1933) and
is thus a Westphalian compatriot; secondly, he urged us
to follow in the footsteps of the legendary Loevy company
in our 'Design for Berlin' project; and thirdly, he ensured
in exemplary manner that our design can even be 'grasped'
by the banks of Lake Michigan.
Josef
Paul Kleihues studied architecture in Berlin, Stuttgart
and Paris. At the age of 32, he started up his own architect’s
firm in Berlin. He soon established his architectural
credentials in a building (main cleaning service depot
in Berlin), planning (IBA) and lecturing (Dortmund, Düsseldorf)
capacity.
