RoehrSchmitt Architecture

What RoehrSchmitt Architecture does

RoehrSchmitt Architecture is a Minneapolis-based architecture and interior design firm operating as RoehrSchmitt Architecture + Interiors, LLC, founded circa 2007 by Michael Roehr and Chris Schmitt, who met on the first day of architecture school. The practice operates with a 12-person team comprising two co-founder Principals, a Director of Operations, senior architects, architectural designers, and interior designers, and delivers design across commercial and residential sectors.

The firm's core practice is split between Commercial Architecture + Interiors (office, retail, hospitality, workspace, community, educational, and multifamily projects, with an emphasis on adaptive reuse of programmatically-challenged buildings) and Residential Architecture (custom new construction and renovation). Cross-cutting capabilities include Historic Preservation compliant with the Secretary of the Interior's standards, 3D Digital Modeling and Reality Capture, Digital Twin creation for ongoing asset management, and Urbanism and Pedestrian-Oriented Design. Technical delivery is anchored in Building Information Modeling (BIM) with Revit, supported by in-house specialist expertise. The firm has been recognized with AIA Minneapolis institutional awards in 2018 and 2019 for adaptive reuse and heritage preservation work.

The business model is a privately-held, founder-owned professional services firm with a single revenue stream from fee-based architectural and interior design engagements delivered through direct, relationship-driven client engagement in the Minneapolis metropolitan area, supported by earned-media thought leadership and a multi-firm engineering/contractor partner ecosystem. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and engagements are quote-based; there are no funding rounds, no institutional investors, and no parent entity. Customer segments span commercial enterprises, nonprofit/community organizations, and government clients across retail, hospitality, healthcare, education, real estate, and banking, alongside individual residential homeowners.

Core offering

RoehrSchmitt Architecture is a Minneapolis-based architecture and interior design firm delivering full-service design across commercial (office, retail, hospitality, educational, community, multifamily, adaptive reuse) and residential (new construction and renovation) sectors. The practice specializes in rehabilitating programmatically-challenged and historic buildings while applying BIM/Revit and reality capture technology to deliver accurate project documentation. Services are sold as professional design engagements rather than packaged products.

Product overview

RoehrSchmitt Architecture is an architecture and interior design firm operating as a unified service offering rather than a modular product portfolio.

Cross-cutting specialized capabilities include 3D Digital Modeling and Reality Capture services for commercial real estate optimization, Historic Preservation consulting meeting Secretary of the Interior standards, and Urbanism/Pedestrian-Oriented Design. The firm emphasizes their unique ability to bring residential sensibility to commercial projects and vice versa, differentiating their integrated approach from specialized firms.
