After graduating from the University of the Arts in Berlin, Dominik worked for several architecture offices in Berlin and Zurich. In 2022, he graduated from the MAS program at the gta with the thesis ‘The World in Ornaments: Friedrich Hessemer’s Imaginary Egypt, 1800-1860’. Currently, he is working in the framework of the SNSF-funded research project ‘Building Identity: Character in Architectural Debate and Design, 1750-1850’, where he interrogates the French, English and German reception of the architectural syncretism in medieval Sicily; its character, historiography and sensemaking between national identity and Orientalised alterity.
