Short CV
Marie-Therese Harnoncourt-Fuchs studied architecture at the University of Applied Arts in Vienna and established the next ENTERprise Architects together with Ernst J. Fuchs in 2000. The internationally active office offers a broad range of expertise, from the design of buildings, experimental installations, exhibition and scenographies to urban planning concepts. The programmatic and spatial limits of their buildings and concepts are conceived with a consciously high level of permeability on the basis of the performative potential of architecture and the interplay between space, atmosphere, local context and user.
Their projects have been awarded and nominated several times for the Mies van der Rohe Award, among others. Most recently they received the renowned Hans Hollein Art Prize for Architecture for their work.
Marie-Therese Harnoncourt-Fuchs has been active as a juror, lecturer and teacher at home and abroad and was appointed Professor of Design and Building Theory at the University of Kassel (DE) in 2018. She is currently a member of the art advisory board of the Bundesimmobiliengesellschaft BIG, a board member of the Architekturstiftung Österreich and a member of the Transdisciplinary Research Centre for Exhibition Studies TRACES at the University of Kassel.
