Architecture for the urban environment
Stefan Forster and his team are one of the leading German architectural practices in the field of housing construction. Employing about 35 architects, we work across the entire residential segment, from high-end apartments to affordable rented flats, from town houses to large city blocks, all the time developing and improving standards. In addition we specialise in remodelling office and administration buildings and in transforming housing estates.
For over 30 years we have been dedicated to further developing the urban environment. We apply tried-and-trusted principles – such as a mix of uses and the differentiation of space into public and private – to serve the needs of today. Our clients include municipal housing associations and cooperatives as well as private investors and developers. We see our work as a plea for quality in everyday architecture and for an urban environment that people can enjoy living in.
