His professional career has taken him to the Technical University of Hamburg-Harburg (TUHH), the Frankfurt University of Applied Sciences, the TU Darmstadt, the Hesse State Energy Agency and the Hesse State Construction and Real Estate Agency (LBIH), where, as sustainability coordinator, he played a key role in achieving the goal of a CO₂-free state administration.

One focus of his research activity is the development of innovative concepts for the transformation of existing buildings and for climate-friendly and resource-efficient urban development.
„In my teaching, I combine practical experience in planning, research and consulting with the teaching of skills in the areas of climate-friendly construction, energy building assessment and life cycle analysis. My goal is to sensitise students to the responsible use of existing buildings and sustainable technology concepts, as well as to teach them practical methods for implementing resource-efficient urban development processes”, says Blome.
