Kuehn Malvezzi's early projects include the exhibition spaces for Documenta11 in Kassel (2002) and the extension of the Rieckhallen at the Hamburger Bahnhof, Museum for Contemporary Art in Berlin (2004).[2] In 2007 they were responsible for the conversion of a former industrial building to house of the Julia Stoschek Collection in Düsseldorf.[3] They reorganized the historical and contemporary art collections of the Österreichische Galerie Belvedere at the Belvedere Palace in Vienna (2007); and the Liebieghaus sculpture collection in Frankfurt am Main (2009).[1] Museum projects in Berlin include the extension of Museum Berggruen (2013); the Museum of Decorative Arts (2014), and the conversion of the Prinzessinnenpalais on Unter den Linden boulevard, to house the PalaisPopulaire – a venue for art, culture and sports by Deutsche Bank.[4]
Kuehn Malvezzi took part in the competition for the Humboldt Forum in Berlin (2008), and attracted acclaim for their critical approach towards the reconstruction briefing. Their concept won the special jury prize, as well as the 2009 German Critics’ Prize in the architecture category.[5][6]
In 2012 Kuehn Malvezzi won the international competition for the interreligious House of One in Berlin. On the site of Berlin's earliest church at Petriplatz, a synagogue, a church and a mosque will be built under one roof, with construction due to start in 2020.[7]
From 2006 - 2012 Wilfried Kuehn was professor for exhibition design and curatorial practice at the Staatliche Hochschule für Gestaltung Karlsruhe, and since 2018 he is professor in design at the Technical University Vienna. Johannes Kuehn has been professor at the Bauhaus-University Weimar since October 2016. Johannes Kuehn, Wilfried Kuehn and Simona Malvezzi are visiting professors at the Harvard Graduate School of Design in 2019.
