THE MAN HIMSELF
Georg M. Hagemeyer does not confine himself to mere exteriors. Having studied interior design as well as architecture (not to mention the history of art and archaeology), it is his declared goal to fuse exterior and interior into one indivisible, aesthetic whole. With this academic background and his humanistic education, additionally influenced by study visits to Athens, Rome, Florence and Venice, it is little wonder that, fundamentally, his professional designs speak a valuable classical language.
Working as a stage designer in Spain before going to university, Hagemeyer learned to introduce the element of drama typical of his designs today by skillful use of light, form, color and material.. His early experiences as a laborer on building sites, where he worked directly after gaining his High School Diploma equivalent, have stood him in good stead for his dealings with the tradesmen who work to his designs as well as lending him a highly practical instinct for their feasibility.

Recipient of the National German Master Builder Award, the Daimler Benz AG award and the German Prize for Architecture (Weka), as well as winning many competitions with both open and restricted entry. Acknowledged by the German National Museum of Architecture for his exceptional achievements.

“Having Georg-Maria Hagemeyer among us was an insightful experience. I was profoundly moved by his presentation, works, and personality. A mix of German rigor, British humor, and French finesse. Georg-Maria Hagemeyer challenges the audience by designing, with a multitude of stories, … amazing ! His Indiana Jones’ hat is more than an amulet for research and theming but also a magical hat for the rabbit of wonder to emerge. Simply a revelation ! Much esteem and admiration.”
