Architect William E. Muschenheim was born in New York City and grew up in the Times Square district next to the family-managed Hotel Astor. A fellow of the American Institute of Architects and professor of architecture at the University of Michigan, Muschenheim studied at Williams College and Massachusetts Institute of Technology before attending the architectural atelier of Peter Behrens, Vienna (Austria) Academy of Fine Arts, where he won the Behrens prize in 1927.
He joined the offices of Peabody, Wilson and Brown in 1929, was a designer with Joseph Urban from 1930 to 1933, and began a private practice in New York in 1934. A pioneering modernist and noted color theorist, Muschenheim was a member of the International Congress for Modern Architecture from its inception. Early New York projects which received international recognition include his Bath Houses on the Dunes, Hotel Astor renovations, the Marine Transportation Building at the 1939 World's Fair;
the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum for Non-Objective Art, and various projects in Hampton Bays. Although Muschenheim continued private practice after joining the faculty of the College of Architecture and Design in Ann Arbor in 1950, a major focus was on teaching and research. He was instrumental in introducing new material to the architectural curriculum, emphasizing an integration of disciplines (architecture, history, sociology, economics, philosophy),
and played a major role in legitimizing the modern movement in an academic environment. Research interests resulted in numerous publications examining architectural curricula around the world and the publication of two books, Elements of the Art of Architecture and Why Architecture.
