Radke Architekten

What Radke Architekten does

Radke Architekten is a family-owned German architecture firm founded on January 1, 1974 by Hubert Radke in Sögel, Niedersachsen, and led since 2011 by second-generation owner Henning Radke. The firm operates as a full-service architecture practice covering all nine HOAI Leistungsphasen (service phases 1-9) from basic analysis through object supervision and follow-up care. With approximately 30 architects, drafters, engineers, and project managers, it delivers projects across four verticals: Kommunalbau (municipal/public buildings), Wohnbau (residential), Industrie/Gewerbe (industrial/commercial), and Gesundheit (healthcare).

The firm offers four formalized service packages: Architektur (core architecture), Energieberatung (in-house certified energy consulting), Generalplaner (coordination of all planning disciplines as single point of contact), and Generalübernehmer (turnkey general contractor delivery with fixed costs). Technology stack consists of industry-standard CAD/BIM tools — Nemetschek Allplan, Archicad, and Revit — with no proprietary software or digital product. The firm pursues a direct sales motion through enterprise client engagement and competitive bidding for public sector projects, operating regionally across Niedersachsen and NRW with a client roster spanning healthcare systems (Ludmillenstift Meppen, St. Vinzenz Hospital Haselünne), retail chains (ROSSMANN, Combi), energy and industrial firms (EWE, Esders, Berentzen), agriculture cooperatives (Raiffeisen), automotive (Autohaus Schwarte), and municipalities (Stadt Haselünne). All revenue derives from professional services fees structured around project scope, complexity, and HOAI fee tables, with multi-year contract cadences typical for healthcare and commercial builds.
