Bollinger + Fehlig Architects

What Bollinger + Fehlig Architects does

Bollinger + Fehlig Architekten is a Berlin-headquartered architecture firm established in 2000, operating through a GmbH and a parallel Generalplanungsgesellschaft mbH under co-founders Roger Bollinger (ETH Zürich, BDA) and Jens Fehlig (BDA). The firm delivers full-scope architectural, construction-management, and planning services across HOAI work phases 1–9, including new-builds, refurbishments, conversions of listed heritage buildings, interior design, and (via the general-planning entity) coordinated delivery with structural, MEP, and landscape consultants. Project categories span residential quarters, commercial and office buildings, boutique hotels, and special buildings such as schools and event venues.

The firm's business model is professional-services based, with project fees determined under the German HOAI fee structure rather than disclosed product or SaaS pricing. Go-to-market is sales-led and relationship-driven: direct commissions, public-sector tenders, and architectural competitions, supplemented by a project-portfolio website, BDA and Architektenkammer Berlin professional memberships, and recurring joint ventures with interior-design firm C+C Interiors and peer architectural practices. Customer concentration is diversified across Berlin's major housing associations and developers (Degewo, STADT UND LAND, GESOBAU, BUWOG, PANDION), public-sector clients (Tempelhof Projekt GmbH, Gemeinde Panketal, Evangelische Kirche), and select commercial and hospitality commissions.

Geographically, while Berlin Kreuzberg remains the headquarters and primary market, the firm maintains an active project presence across Hamburg, Potsdam, Dresden, Strausberg, Göppingen, Königswinter, and Verbier (Switzerland), with a documented pipeline of large mixed-use, life-science, and residential commissions extending through 2029. The firm employs 50+ architects and staff and is privately held by its two founding partners with no external institutional investment.
