Together with Johannes Canis he founded the advertising agency werbe-bau in Bochum, and from 1926 to 1933 he taught commercial art and photography at the Volkwangschule in Essen.

In 1928 he became a member of the board of the Society of New Advertising Designers (Ring neuer werbegestalter) and participated in the International Press Exhibition in Cologne. Burchartz also designed furniture and fittings. He is now considered a pioneer of modern design.
