CV Susanne Schmidhuber

Susanne Schmidhuber hat den Blick fürs Ganze. Nie still stehen und immer neue Impulse setzen ist ihr Credo, das das Büro seit jeher ausmacht. Nach dem Studium der Innarchitektur gründet sie 1984 zusammen mit Prof. Klaus Schmidhuber das Büro Schmidhuber+Partner, heute SCHMIDHUBER. Den Gedanken von Marketing orientierter Architektur in Verbindung mit Kommunikation trägt sie in vielschichtiger Weise nach außen. In zahlreichen Vorträgen begeistert sie ihre Zuhörer, in umfangreicher Jurytätigkeit ist sie eine geschätzte Stimme, in der Projektarbeit sind ihre Kreativität und Erfahrung eine wichtige Konstante.

CV Martina Metzner

For Martina Metzner good design and sustainability are not separate concepts, but rather interconnected - and apart from her fascination for textiles, a central motif of her journalistic work. After ten years at TextilWirtschaft and Stylepark she is now working as an independent author and trend scout. Her features could be found at German Architects, Interior Fashion and Stylepark among others. With Raumprobe in Stuttgart she teams up for the Materialreport - an annual review of upcoming materials and colors for design and architecture. In her free time, Martina supports PIER F - a platform for sustainable architecture in Frankfurt am Main.
