Hugo Ehrlich (Шаблон:IPA; 31 January 1879 – 21 September 1936) was a Croatian architect.

Early life and education

Ehrlich was born in Zagreb to a wealthy Jewish family of builder and entrepreneur Herman Ehrlich and his wife Marija (née Eisner).[1][2][3] His maternal grandfather was Zagreb's Rabbi. He was raised together with his brothers, Adolf, Ernest, Đuro and sister Mira. In 1897, Ehrlich enrolled in the Vienna University of Technology, just like his brother Đuro had a few years before. He studied under architect Carl König, for whom he worked as an associate in the König studio. After graduation from the university, Ehrlich stayed in Vienna, where he worked for Humbert Walcher.[4]

Under Walcher, Ehrlich worked on the restoration of the Burg Kreuzenstein. In 1907, he worked on the first project related to his birth city, a new government building. From 1908 to 1912, Ehrlich undertook work on the adaptation of villa Karma in Clarens, near Montreux. Ehrlich returned to Zagreb in 1909. In Zagreb, he worked at his family's architecture studio, but in 1910 he and Viktor Kovačić together formed the Kovačić & Ehrlich studio. Ehrlich's collaboration with Kovačić was marked by three projects in Zagreb. The first was a Jesuit square project that Ehrlich designed with Kovačić. He also worked independently on the Strossmayer promenade. The third project from that period was related to the Vraz walkway. During the Kovačić & Ehrlich collaboration, they designed several residential buildings and family houses. In 1914, while working on the Hungarian railroad school, Ehrlich was mobilized in the Austro-Hungarian Army. In 1915, Ehrlich ended his partnership with Kovačić.[4]

After World War I, Ehrlich worked at the Adolf & Ernest Ehrlich architect studio. During that period, most of his works were designed in the spirit of eclectic mannerism. In the 1920s, Ehrlich designed over twenty residential and commercial properties. From 1921 to 1923 he worked on the head office building of Slavenska Banka.[5] After the death of Viktor Kovačić in the autumn of 1924, Ehrlich took over construction work on the building of the Zagreb Stock Exchange (now Croatian National Bank) together with Alfred Albini and Stjepan Gomboš. The work on the exterior and interior was completed in June 1927. Beginning in 1925, Ehrlich worked as a professor at the University of Zagreb Faculty of Architecture. During that time Ehrlich's studio became one of the largest studios in Zagreb, gathering the most talented generation of architects such as Alfred Albini, Stephen Gomboš, Mladen Kauzlarić, Juraj Denzler and Drago Galić. In 1928, Ehrlich received an invitation for the Congrès International d'Architecture Moderne.[4]

Death

Ehrlich died in Zagreb on 21 September 1936 and was buried at the Mirogoj Cemetery.[6][7]
