| Gottfried Schramm was born on April 17, 1894 in Hamburg. Schramm’s father was a Reich German overseas merchant. His mother was born in England to a London-based family of German descent. Gottfried Schramm studied architecture at the TH Berlin (Charlottenburg) from 1912 to 1914. From 1914 to 1918 he took part in the First World War. In 1919 he continued his studies at the TH Dresden. In 1921 he completed his diploma main examination. In the same year he married in Monterrey (Mexico) Elsita Moebius, daughter of a Spanish mother and a German father. Also in 1921 he joined the office of Erich Elingius and worked as a freelance architect. The partnership with Erich Elingius took place in 1924. From then on, the architect community was called Ericvh Eligius and Gottfried Schramm, with the abbreviation Elingius + Schramm. Areas of work were mainly single-family houses (villas, country houses), office buildings and publicly funded housing. In 1939, Schramm was commissioned by Konstanty Gutschow to provide expert opinions and partial drafts for the plans for the redesign of Hamburg (including a draft for a passenger facility on the north bank of the Elbe, the project was discontinued in 1943). After the Second World War he continued his work with administration buildings, single-family houses and apartment buildings. |
