Eric Kuhne

Eric Robert Kuhne (born September 2, 1951) is an American-born British architect based in London. Owner of CivicArts / Eric R Kuhne & Associates, his office is a research and design firm which has completed projects on five continents. The philosophy of CivicArts is to "re-unite the creative arts of art, architecture, garden, interior, urban and industrial design." He advances the theory of CivicArts as a counterpoint to the anonymity of modern culture.
With major projects around the world, Kuhne's best known assignment was the Bluewater Shopping Centre in Kent completed in 1999, the largest shopping mall in Europe. He is perhaps best known now for his recent master plan for Kuwait’s City of Silk which includes a proposal for a record-breaking Burj Mubarak al-Kabir (Arabian Nights Tower) . He was subsequently commissioned to create a similar project in Dubai in February 2008.
== Life ==
Kuhne was born in San Antonio, Texas of Swiss, Czech, and Swedish heritage and he grew up in the Air Force as a son to Major Robert David Kuhne and Thelma Parsons Kuhne. He moved with his sister (Dawn Elyse) and brother (Wes Parsons) from one Air Force base to another, living in San Antonio, Houston, Biloxi, Tampa, Tucson, Chicago, and El Paso before his father retired in 1962. The family then moved to New Haven, Indiana and civilian life.
During his childhood, his father taught him perspective drawing when he was seven years old. His parents introduced him to architecture and civil engineering through books in their library. His early employment was with a landscape architect in Fort Wayne, Indiana before beginning work as an assistant to Dr Louis G. Petro, a Civil Engineer in Fort Wayne. With Louis G Petro & Associates, between the ages of 14 and 16, he learned drafting, project management, and the fundamentals to both architecture and engineering.〔Deanna Krinn, ("Noted Architect designs beer garden: Louis Petro has worked, taught around the US ), ''The News-Sentinel'', November 6, 2007. Retrieved on September 7, 2008.〕 He worked for Cole Matson & Matott Architects in Fort Wayne in his final year of high school. Graduating from New Haven High School in 1969, he entered William Marsh Rice University in the School of Architecture. There, he completed a Bachelor of Arts Degree with majors in both Art and Architecture in 1973. Returning to Indiana, he began work for Louis Petro, who was then the head of the Fort Wayne Housing Authority, and within three months he was selected as the Midtown Architect for Mayor Ivan Lebamoff in Fort Wayne. During this time, he completed a new master plan for downtown Fort Wayne. In addition, he restored the farmer's market back to West Berry Street, designed the Courtyards Project (then called the "Alley Project") at Wayne and Calhoun Streets, and developed the initial plans for Citilights State Park (eventually to become Headwaters Park).
While in Fort Wayne, Kuhne was also appointed to the Board of the Public Transportation Corporation by Mayor Lebamoff. He was appointed to the Allen County Soil & Water Conservation District by the Governor of the State of Indiana.

Traveling in Europe in 1974 under the William Ward Watkin Traveling Fellowship, which he been awarded from the Rice University School of Architecture in 1973, he traveled throughout Europe. Kuhne left Fort Wayne in 1981 to work for Michael Graves, Architect in Princeton, New Jersey. In the autumn of 1981 Kuhne entered Princeton's Graduate School of Architecture and graduated in 1983 with a Masters of Architecture degree. For his work there, he won the Henry Adams Medal from the American Institute of Architects.
Kuhne now works and lives in London in Clerkenwell. In December 2009, Eric Kuhne became a British citizen and holds dual citizenship with the United States of America.
