Hansjörg Göritz (English: Hansjoerg Goeritz; born 5 June 1959) is a German-American[1] architect, professor, author and designer associated with pure and minimalist architecture that emphasizes place, space, light and material.

Goeritz was born in Hannover, West Germany and grew up in the vernacular context of Lower Saxony as the son of a mason.

After Grand Tours d'Orients in the Mediterranean, to Cistercian monasteries, to picturesque gardens in England, and travels in Scandinavia he practices with his Studio in Hannover since 1986, and Berlin since 2007.

His Expo 2000 train station design is materialized with custom made Florentine cobalt blue glass blocks and blue pigmented concrete to match the color of the German state railway corporate design on the Expo-line, connecting the airport to the Expo fairgrounds, in Hannover, Germany.
