Swiss-born Hans Hohloch studied at the Art Academy in Dresden and was then an assistant at the Academy in Dusseldorf. In the 1930s he returned to his native town of Winterthur, where he worked as an architect and built schools and kindergartens in the style of modern architecture. As a draftsman and painter, Hohloch was part of the Winterthur art circle. In the 1928 Art Catalogue he is listed as a German architect, but he probably remained a Swiss citizen. Hohloch had won the first prize of a competition for a vocational school in Gera while he was assistant professor at the Dresden Academy. Part of the plans was a swimming facility, his entry for the 1928 art competitions. The school was never built at the planned location on Laasener Straße, which is now occupied by a garden plot.
