Frank is a qualified architect (SIA). After studying architecture at BTU Cottbus, ETSAB Barcelona and Berlin University of the Arts, he worked with renowned international architecture firms in Japan, Germany, Spain, America and Switzerland. He deepened his artistic and scenographic approach at the Berlin University of the Arts before coming to Switzerland in 2001 as exhibition architect for the Swiss National Exhibition Expo '02.

He has been working with iart in various capacities since 2002. In order to further develop the field of scenography, iart took over Frank Dittmann GmbH in 2025, which had made a name for itself in previous years with a diverse and high-quality portfolio. In addition to his practical work, Frank is involved in teaching and, as co-founder of the Swiss Scenography Association, in the further development of this demanding discipline.

Frank is bursting with ideas. On the way to finding the best solution, his mind and pen remain tirelessly active. With a sure hand, he translates content into spatial experiences and gives them a clear visual language. Working as part of a team, he seeks out productions and architectures that will remain in the visitors' memories.
