Richard Ermisch was a German architect, painter and graphic designer. From 1903 to 1906, he attended the 'Königliche Preußische Baugewerkschule' at Erfurt. For a short time, he worked with Karl Doflein in Berlin, and from 1907-1922 at the municipal building control office in Charlottenburg, which was an independent city until 1920.
