Laura Feller Eilfried Huth was born in 1930 in Pangalengan, Indonesia. He studied
architecture at the Technical University of Graz. In 1957 Huth founded
his own architecture practice in Graz. He ran a shared office with the
architect GĂĽnther Domenig from 1963 to 1975. Huth was appointed
professor at the Academy of Arts in Berlin in 1984.1
From 1983 to 1987, Huth, together with Herbert Altenbacher, designed
the service buildings of the Plabutschtunnel, a 10km long motorway
tunnel in Styria. The service buildings were nicknamed the Green
Elephants and were made of exposed and sprayed concrete.2
