Jürgen Mayer H. is the founder and principal of J. Mayer H., a cross-disciplinary studio based in Berlin. Since its foundation in 1996, the studio has produced an acclaimed body of work that unites construction and sustainability, urbanity and architectural form. Approaching the interface between architecture, urban planning, art installations and the development of new materials, Mayer’s work uses the relationship between body, nature and technology to form the background for a new production of space.

Among the best-known buildings by J. Mayer H. Architects are the Mensa Karlsruhe at the University of Karlsruhe and Dupli.Casa near Ludwigsburg – two projects whose unusual forms offer insight into the design process, in which, according to Mayer, “the graphic exterior wraps the content of the organizational layout.”

Metropol Parasol, the plan for the comprehensive redevelopment of the Plaza de la Encarnación in Sevilla currently under construction, exemplifies the Mayer’s aim to restructure the environment in order to create new relations among people and towns.
