Philippe Baumann was born in 1964 in Paris, France. He graduated from Brown University in 1986, with an honors degree in Art History, minoring in printmaking. Philippe received a Master of Architecture from Rice University in 1991, and spent the following year working with Peter Waldman, then Professor of Architecture at Rice.
Following his time in Texas, Philippe moved to Berlin, Germany and teamed with a former Rice graduate, Michael Mussotter, to build more than a dozen buildings in one three-year span, including public housing, kindergartens and private residences. Architecture has taken him far afield since -- to Guatemala, Botswana, Mauritius, Europe and Anguilla.
Philippe returned to New York in 1996, and founded Baumann Architecture in 2000, an award-winning internationally recognized full-service architectural firm, specializing in meticulously designed and detailed residential and commercial projects. Projects currently under construction include a steel house in upstate New York, for a steel fabricator and his minimalist German wife, and an ecologically resilient country residence for two psychoanalysts and their children.
Philippe Baumann has taught at Parsons School of Design since 1998 and participates frequently in architectural juries and competitions.
