Lateltin Monnerat architectes SA

What Lateltin Monnerat architectes SA does

Lateltin Monnerat architectes SA is a Swiss architecture firm headquartered in Fribourg, established in 1964 by Jean-Claude Lateltin. The firm is owned and operated by four partners — Pascal Cupillard, Pascal Pauchard, Jean-François Monnerat, and Eric Lateltin — and operates with a multi-disciplinary team of approximately 15-20 architects, project managers, conductors of works, draftspersons, administrative staff, and apprentices. Following a generational succession in 2019 when two new partners joined, the firm operates under the current legal entity Lateltin Monnerat architectes SA. The firm maintains professional registrations with SIA, REG A & B, CSEA, AFMC, and UTS, and holds ISO 9001 quality certification (valid April 2026).

The firm's core offering is comprehensive architectural services spanning new construction, renovation, transformation, heritage restoration, urban planning, and BIM coordination. The technology stack centers on Archicad 29 (BIM-oriented workflow) with a specialization in BIM Coordination acquired in February 2023, alongside Photoshop and MS Office. The firm serves six primary customer verticals in Western Switzerland: real estate developers and pension funds (residential projects), educational institutions, healthcare and senior living facilities, cultural and institutional buildings, transport infrastructure, and industrial/commercial properties. Notable clients include Transports Publics Fribourgeois, CPPEF, Crédit Suisse Real Estate, Banque Cantonale de Fribourg, armasuisse, and various municipalities.

Lateltin Monnerat operates as a professional services firm on a project-by-project basis, with revenue earned through architectural service fees. Go-to-market combines direct commissions from institutional and private clients with active participation in open and invited Swiss architectural competitions (concours), at municipal, cantonal, and federal levels. The firm has executed over 100 projects across the Fribourg region and broader Western Switzerland, with a track record of competition wins and heritage awards, including Le Clou Rouge 2026 recognition from Patrimoine Suisse for the Petites-Rames 5 building. Distribution is exclusively direct: no resale, retail, or marketplace channels apply.
