Our company
Since its founding in 1993, CUUBUUS architects & developers has already implemented a large number of pioneering projects in Austria and the CEE countries. More than 902,000 square meters of usable space were planned and designed. Thus, in addition to the focus on residential buildings and loft conversions, there are also projects in the areas of offices, hotels and shopping malls.
CUUBUUS identifies innovative trends with prospects for the future at an early stage. As such, we can look back on a long tradition of sustainable, ecological architecture. CUUBUUS has been one of the pioneers in the field of sustainable construction since the 1990s – and we remain true to this tradition. Our plans already take into consideration the consequences of increasing energy scarcity and other environmental influences in order to ensure the optimal use of energy and operational aspects of the property.
With 31 years of company existence and thus decades of valuable experience in the development of new construction projects, our expertise also includes the revitalization of existing buildings and the expansion of attic space. Every reconstruction project requires special detailed knowledge, legal, technical and economic know-how. Architecturally, the challenge lies in the successful symbiosis of historical flair and contemporary aspirations. Our credo: careful handling of historical building fabric with state-of-the-art construction methods and high-quality facilities at the same time.
years of experience ensure professional, successful implementation.

Building creates opportunities. Realizing these in a way that adds value requires first-class architecture that works. CUUBUUS develops building projects around the needs of clients, occupants and the environment. Our creative spatial concepts add value in use, aesthetics and experience. The timeless and clear design of CUUBUUS offers innovative solutions with sustainability.
For us, contemporary building means the perfect interplay of dynamic design, compelling functionality, state-of-the-art building technology and strict budget efficiency. We combine our sophisticated design language with a high level of cost awareness – we think across boundaries, we understand architecture from a holistic perspective.
Developers

CUUBUUS creates the basis for sustainable investment. In the course of due diligence, projects are subjected to intensive technical, business and legal analysis in order to identify development potential and economic profitability.
Based on this, we develop project concepts that inspire and promise sustainable success. This provides investors with a thorough and sound basis for decision-making.
CUUBUUS implements projects with and for investors. In doing so, we combine technical knowledge with economic understanding. If desired, we can also accompany you during the implementation itself. As part of our project management and coordination activities, we represent you as the building owner, monitor deadlines and costs, and thus bring your visions to the ground in a sustainable manner.
TEAM
In order to be able to develop, pursue and ultimately bring all our projects to a successful conclusion, we need committed employees. People who are passionate about what they do. Colleagues who contribute, enrich each other, function as a team and take their responsibilities seriously. We combine experience, competence, detailed knowledge, technical know-how, fresh ideas, enjoyment of (constructional) challenges, stamina in all organizational matters, a strong network of consultants and professional service providers.
Ing. Eduard Mair MAS
Eduard Mair is CEO and founder of CUUBUUS. He started back then and still hasn’t lost any of his passion 30 years later. On the contrary: once he has a vision in mind, he pursues his goals with ambition, perseverance and a large portion of Tyrolean charm. His commitment to quality applies not only to our projects, the working methods of all involved, but also to himself. With golf and flying – Eduard has a pilot’s license & years of corresponding flying experience – he clears his head and gets new ideas. Driven by his passion for architecture, he will probably continue to be on the lookout for exciting projects and extraordinary buildings for the next three decades.
Harald Jessl
Our guy for finances and therefore always the right intuition when it comes to investments. Although not related by blood, but a living part of the family – Harald has been a partner & member of the management team at CUUBUUS for over 25 years. As a father of 4 boys, he is used to hustle and bustle and noise, thus the situation at home is frequently similar to that on the construction site. His commitment is exemplary, he takes a personal interest in each of our projects and sometimes his voice resounds very passionately through our halls. The native Viennese finds compensation for bank appointments, mezzanine capital and investor reports as a passionate sailor on various routes at sea, preferably through the Mediterranean, or behind the wheel – the hobby kart driver already has one or two trophies on his shelf.
Mag. Patrizia Hunter
As the next generation of management, Patrizia is following in her father’s footsteps and has been managing the operational business at CUUBUUS for several years with the same enthusiasm and passion, enhanced by female intuition. Tyrolean charm meets Viennese coolness – the mother of a son can’t be ruffled by anything, and her energy is remarkable. In addition to her sales expertise, which she proves during on-site visits with our customers, she also confidently steers all projects strategically to their destination. Fascinated by the country and its people, she likes to go to Ibiza as much as to the ski slopes of the Tyrolean mountains.
Ing. Nina Mair BCom. MSc.
Besides the name, which obviously connects her to her father, Nina, as a studied expert with a degree in real estate management, is predestined to be the next generation of management – together with her sister Patrizia, she sets the course for the CUUBUUS generation change. In the course of various trainings and studies as well as numerous stays abroad, among others in Canada, Nina has not only traveled far, but above all gained valuable experience, which she can apply at CUUBUUS in communicating with our international customers. Mainly responsible for the acquisition of new projects, she is also a valuable member of the team from a sales point of view. In addition to her passion for flying – she is a pilot herself – the enthusiastic diver is constantly making plans in her head for her next trip.
DI Arch. Erich Maria Markh
The calming influence and solid rock – hardly anyone radiates as much patience, confidence and sovereignty as the head of our team of architects. Erich steers through every project (no matter how challenging) with an unwavering composure and focus, always maintaining an overview, not least due to his decades of experience and thus acquired expertise. As a man of fine intellect, he appreciates culture and art, culinary delights and a good glass of wine. When not working on his project planning, he finds compensation in traveling and city trips.
DI Arch. Gernot Zuckerhut
Our cliché and exemplary architect – hardly anyone in our team serves the common role model of this profession as well as Gernot: Preferably dressed in black, he is not only an incredibly pleasant, humorous colleague, but also an exceptional talent when it comes to designs and layout. With his exceptionally good eye for detail and with the help of his immense imagination, he is able to put the vision he has created in his head onto paper in no time. After completing his studies and working mostly abroad, the native of Salzburg finally pitched his tents permanently in our federal capital and has been a member of the CUUBUUS team since 2005. Balancing out his professional life, the family father finds his best way to relax is by riding his motorcycle.
Ing. Gernot Lippert
A dry sense of humor, extensive technical expertise, coupled with life experience and diverse interests – that’s the best way to describe our guy from Perchtoldsdorf. In addition to his great passion for civil engineering and careful planning, another subject is at least as close to the heart of the father of two: Good food. So as long as the lunch table is ensured, you can have just about anything from this colleague. Almost never in a bad mood, he has also been an integral part of the CUUBUUS team for almost two decades, including the relocation of various company locations.
As to what exactly his job involves, he’d best tell you himself 😉
Ing. Barbara Hasil
With her distinctive laugh and her open winning manner, the sunny power woman from Lower Austria is an enrichment for our team in many ways. Having spent the last few years both as a self-employed structural engineer and employed in planning offices, we were finally able to convince Barbara to join us full time and thus now become a REAL CUUBUUSian. In addition to her many years of extensive professional experience, this enthusiastic diver is distinguished above all by her great love of renovation projects. Sometimes we may be irritated as accidental ear witnesses during phone calls of our new colleague – we have to get used to consciously perceive the last letter of her last name, as we are otherwise surprised about the natural use of affectionate pet names to greet complete strangers 😉
DI Arch. Benjamin Lehner
“Ben”, as the likeable colleague prefers to be called, has been working for the competitor for the last 17 years, and since February we have now been able to welcome the native of Baden-Württemberg to our team of architects. In addition to his enthusiasm for working on construction sites, he impresses with his extensive experience in construction technology, his know-how and, above all, his high level of competence in detailed planning. In his spare time, the father of two also likes to deal with technical matters – and as a friend of cultivated beer, he swaps the art of building for the art of brewing. In this context, Ben loves the summer (preferably in his own garden), enjoys barbecuing and is generally a sociable person who likes to have friends around him. Professionally, the self-confessed puzzle and basketball fan steers calmly, comfortably and, not least, with a large portion of dry humor, even through stormy construction phases to the (completion) goal.
DI Arch. Katarina Ivusic-Kuvikova
Since August, we are pleased to have further female reinforcement in our planning team. Katarina is not only a qualified architect and sworn civil engineer, but also holds a degree in structural engineering and civil engineering. True to her lived motto “Active instead of passive” her joy of design and design motivation also finds its way into her private life: The last few years she and her husband have renovated a press house in the Kamptal valley in a modern way, whereby it was important to her not to change the outer appearance. Not only metaphorically, she can now harvest the fruits of her labor and enjoys using the fruits and vegetables from her own garden there in cooking to relax. In her job, Katarina is an all-rounder, both on the construction site and in front of the PC, and finds all phases of work exciting, from the preliminary design, to the coordination with the authorities during the submission planning, to the detailed planning, to the ÖBA. As a very cheerful and open team player, the native Slovakian otherwise only corresponds to a common professional cliché: her favorite colors are black and white 😉
DI Mathias Auer
The “&” between “architects & developers” and our guy for (almost) all matters. Trained in the Viennese startup scene, he can be deployed in a wide variety of entrepreneurial areas, which is why we like to call Mathias our “Swiss Army Knife”. The passion for project management in real estate development was sparked for our environmental & civil engineer from the Mostviertel during an internship at CUUBUUS. Since then, in addition to his amazing talent for collaborative site management, he has been an inspiring, humorous and helpful team player who always keeps his cool and stays on top of things. When he’s not on the job at construction sites, the Star Wars fan enjoys his free time on road trips, devouring biohacking and business books, or recharging his batteries for his busy workdays while visiting family and friends in his hometown.
To hear exactly what Mathias is doing, it’s best if he tells you himself 😉
Barbara Böswarth
The first and friendliest face you meet when you walk in the door at CUUBUUS. As the good soul & organizational talent, Barbara ensures that our daily office routine runs smoothly, coordinates all appointments and receives inquiries from interested parties or service providers. The mother of two grown-up sons finds a balance to the hustle and bustle of the office with long bike rides in the countryside or enjoys some well-deserved peace and quiet on hikes in the mountains.
Monika Hoepers
Our colleague Monika, (preferred “Moni”) with a high affinity for numbers takes care of invoices and coordinates accounting at CUUBUUS. Where others prefer to look the other way on this subject, the native of Klosterneuburg devotes herself to every single decimal place with great commitment and attention to detail. Her interest in clean form, straight lines and the correct bottom line may also stem from her active past in line dance, which she now prefers to enjoy as a visitor in the audience rather than on stage herself. As an enthusiastic Harley Davidson driver and frequent visitor to concerts and cabarets, she combines a wide range of interests in one person. In addition, the mother of two adult sons enjoys being out in nature, preferably on the water.
