Zumthor has taught at Southern California Institute Of Architecture In Los Angeles , the Technical University Of Munich , the Academy of Architecture Mendrisio, Università della Svizzera Italiana, and the Harvard Graduate School Of Design . Zumthor's work is largely unpublished in part because of his Philosophical belief that architecture must be experienced first hand. His published written work is mostly Narrative and Phenomenological . Currently, Zumthor works out of his small studio which he founded in 1979, in the town of Haldenstein, Switzerland . He enjoys playing Tennis , good Cigars , Margaritas and Jazz . PRINCIPAL WORKS
