A friendship turns into a partnership

Winning the first prize in an international ideas competition during our joint student work at the Graz University of Technology, was a groundbreaking experience for us. The soccer stadium in Vienna we designed at that time was a first impulse for us to establish our own architectural office. Ten years then passed. Ten years of intensive work in renowned architectural offices in different parts of Austria.

Arch DI Markus Fischer
After studying architecture at Graz University of Technology, Markus gained extensive experience in Vorarlberg, working in Dornbirn with Bernd Spiegel and in Lustenau with Baumschlager Eberle as a project manager for numerous projects in Vorarlberg and Switzerland. A project management position at Georg Eder brought him back to Graz. There, he established FIPE architecture together with Michael in 2016.

Arch DI Michael Petar
Michael was primarily shaped by his work at Innocad in Graz, where he had already been working while studying architecture at Graz University of Technology and later became a partner. At 13&9 Design, he showed his love and talent for product design. Michael also worked as a project manager on a number of outstanding projects. In 2016, he established FIPE architecture together with Markus.
