After graduation from the Ecole Technique Superieure in Lausanne, he worked at Le Corbusier's office in Paris, France for six years. First as an architecture apprentice and later as a collaborateur. Upon his return to Switzerland in 1931, collaborating with the architect Eduard Lanz, he designed and built the Volkshaus in Biel/Bienne in 1932.

Following the successful completion of the Volkshaus, and in collaboration with his wife Marguerite Dubuis (née Allemand) he established his own architecture practice in 1936, initially located in Biel/Bienne and then in Evilard, Canton of Berne.
