Author Jan Frohburg

Jan Frohburg

Jan Frohburg studied architecture in Weimar, London, Zurich and Chicago and graduated from the Bauhaus University Weimar in 1998. After practicing architecture for three years, free-lance and with Gildehaus.Reich architects, he returned to teach at the Bauhaus University before taking a position as visiting lecturer at Virginia Tech’s Washington Alexandria Architecture Center in 2006. Since 2007, he has lectured in the School of Architecture, University of Limerick. His research interests evolve around community-centred planning and self-build projects as well as the spatial expression of Modernity, focusing on the spatial concept characteristic to the works of Mies van der Rohe.
