The field of expertise lies on spatial and structural incorporation of architectural concepts with a focus on residential buildings, office buildings, shopping centers and old-people’s centers.

Our silver partner is not only engaged in national architectonical competitions – they are also successful in international competitions and project development: The Swiss firm is internationally oriented and has realized large projects in development of residential areas and in the Chinese tourism sector.
