A course by Pavel Fomenko

Teacher Plus
Architect, Concept Developer, and Creative Director

Pavel Fomenko is a Russian-born Architect, concept developer, and creative director. His work is heavily influenced by both his grandfather, a WWII pilot and creative craftsman with a talent for drawing, and the industrial beauty of Holland where he moved with his family. He went on to study at an art college in Rotterdam. His drawing skills were noticed by an architect who was starting his own office and alongside him, he was able to hone his skills and learn the ins and outs of running an architectural firm.

Now, with over 20 years of experience in architecture and concept design, Pavel believes in a fearless approach to his craft. He has worked with everyone from real estate developers to clients in the videogame industry and has also co-founded two architecture studios in Oslo. He currently works as a senior architect and concept developer at Gottlieb Paludan Architects, one of Scandinavia's leading companies specialized in infrastructural design and industrial architecture.
