What Jordi + Partner AG does

Jordi + Partner AG is a Swiss architecture firm headquartered at Mülinenstrasse 23 in Bern, founded in 1935 by Hans Jordi and currently operating in its third generation of family-led management. The firm delivers full-service architectural work spanning feasibility studies, 3D project and execution planning, construction management, quality assurance procedures, and client trusteeship. Its service portfolio is organized around three pillars: new construction, renovation/transformation (with particular emphasis on heritage-listed buildings under Denkmalschutz oversight), and adaptive reuse/conversion of existing structures. Notable commissions include the conversion of a building into the US Embassy in Bern, construction of the Swiss Embassy in Islamabad, the Station West Interlaken mixed-use development (36 condominiums, a 94-room Dorint hotel, 22 serviced apartments, and ground-floor retail), and renovations for clients including Coop Immobilien, Die Mobiliar, Galerie Kornfeld, and Freienhof Thun AG.

The customer base is split between private clients (single-family homes, apartments, residential conversions) and commercial/institutional clients (hospitality, retail, mixed-use, senior living, government/diplomatic). The firm maintains a deliberately stable workforce of 20-30 long-tenured employees and is led by four partners: Patrick Jordi (ETH/SIA/AIA, third generation), Markus Grundmann (ETH/SIA, partner since 1975), Marcel Wüthrich (HFP/SBO, construction management specialist since 1997, partner since 2014), and Stefan Weibel (FH architect, partner since January 2022). It is ISO 9001 certified (since 2001), an AIA member (since 2002), and registered with SIA, REG, FSAI, and GAB. Operations are concentrated in Switzerland with selected international projects (Germany, USA, UK, Pakistan, Israel). The revenue model is professional services fees on a project basis; pricing is not publicly disclosed. Ownership is concentrated among the partner group under a Swiss Aktiengesellschaft (AG) structure, with no external institutional investors or parent company.
