F64 Architects

What F64 Architects does

F64 Architekten und Stadtplaner GmbH is a privately held German architecture and urban planning firm headquartered in Kempten, Bavaria, operating since approximately 2001-2003. The firm provides comprehensive architectural services across public buildings (schools, sports halls, daycare centers, community halls), residential developments, commercial and industrial facilities, interior design, and urban planning studies. Its service offering spans the full HOAI Leistungsphasen 1-9 delivery cycle, from competition entry through execution supervision.

The firm's core technical differentiator is deep specialization in sustainable construction, with documented expertise in DGNB certification (including pre-check for school projects), KfW-55 and KfW-70 energy standards, Energy Plus building design, and timber construction (Holzbau) using systems such as Baubuche. Notable technical capabilities include climate-adapted construction (green roofs, natural ventilation), photovoltaic integration, water-water heat pump systems, and groundwater utilization, exemplified in projects like the elobau Logistikzentrum Leutkirch which produces 2.6x more energy than it consumes. The firm relies on a network of specialist partners (Transsolar for energy engineering, Holzbau Amann for timber systems, Kling Consult for structural, Baron for landscape) rather than internalizing all technical capabilities.

Revenue is generated exclusively through professional services fees under the German HOAI fee ordinance, with project-based pricing on commissions won via public architectural competitions (VgV/RPW procedures for municipal clients) and direct commissions from private commercial clients. The customer base is split between German municipalities (Stadt Füssen, Stadt Kaufbeuren, Stadt Memmingen, Gemeinde Lachen, Diözese Augsburg) and private commercial anchors (notably elobau GmbH across multiple sites, Envola, Allgäuer Überlandwerk). Geographic focus is Southern Germany, primarily the Allgäu region of Bavaria, with selective projects in Baden-Württemberg and Thuringia. Marketing is conducted through competition participation, a portfolio website, and organic social channels (Instagram, Facebook) rather than paid acquisition.
