Reith

What Reith does

Reith Wehner Storch Architekten BDA PartG mbB is a German architecture firm headquartered in Fulda, Hesse, founded in 1980 by Manfred Reith and currently managed by partners Max Reith and Stephan Storch. The firm offers a unified portfolio of architectural services rather than a modular software product, with core offerings in Architektur (architectural design), Innenarchitektur (interior design), Städtebau (urban planning), and Denkmalpflege (heritage preservation), supplemented by Machbarkeitsstudien (feasibility studies) and Generalplanungen (general planning/project management). Its technology is professional expertise in design, regulatory compliance (DIN 18040 accessibility, public building codes, heritage regulations), and coordination across project lifecycles, rather than proprietary software or platform architecture.

The firm serves three primary customer segments: the public sector (Land Hessen, Landkreis Fulda, Hessian municipalities), private developers and investors (Werner Immobilien, K&L Immobilien, tegut, CSS AG), and corporate clients (Klinikum Fulda, Mehler AG). Go-to-market is relationship-driven and competition-led: the firm acquires work through architectural competitions (Wettbewerbe), public tenders, direct commissions, and referrals, with documented first prizes including Sturmiusschule Fulda, Kindertagesstätte St. Pius, and Hotelneubau Jena. Revenue is generated through project-based commissions with fees negotiated based on scope and complexity rather than standardized pricing. The firm is a member of the Architekten- und Stadtplanerkammer Hessen and the BDA (Bund Deutscher Architekten), operates from a single office in Fulda, and maintains an ongoing project pipeline including Neugestaltung Friedensplatz Darmstadt, Langer-Areal Schlüchtern, and Milseburghütte Hofbieber (scheduled completion 2026).
