Andreas Stanzel

Andreas Stanzel is a Zurich-based architect working at the intersection of spatial practice, research, and design. He holds a Master’s degree in Architecture from the Bauhaus University Weimar, where his thesis "Hotel Interim" received both the university’s special prize and the EUmies Awards Young Talent 2025. His academic path includes studies at the Faculdade de Arquitectura do Porto and the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna, shaping a transdisciplinary and context-sensitive approach to architecture. He has collaborated with various studios and institutions on projects ranging from adaptive reuse, art-in-context, and exhibition design — including a collaboration with the German Pavilion at the 2023 Venice Architecture Biennale. He currently practices at Lütjens Padmanabhan Architekt*innen in Zurich. Alongside his office experience, he runs an independent practice focused on small-scale commissions and research-driven work. His current interests include interim use, small-scale infrastructures, and the spatial narratives that emerge across borders and contexts.
