WEBER & KEILING

What WEBER & KEILING does

WEBER & KEILING (operating as Weber Keiling Associés, or WKA) is a private architecture firm founded in 1990 in Strasbourg, France, by Patrick Weber and Pierre Keiling. The firm provides full-service architectural design and project management, spanning new construction, rehabilitation, restructuring, and extension of buildings across a wide range of typologies: educational facilities, cultural venues, student housing, residential complexes, commercial/automotive dealerships, sports facilities, healthcare buildings, and public administrative structures. Its core technical capabilities lie in heritage conservation (including UNESCO-listed buildings), sustainable construction with BBC/E3C1/E3C2 and biosourced material certifications, wood construction, and BIM management. The team comprises approximately 17 professionals, including the two founders, associates, and architects primarily trained at ENSAS Strasbourg.

The firm operates primarily in the Grand Est region of France and serves a public-sector-dominant client base. Go-to-market is via competitive public procurement (concours) for municipal, regional, and national government commissions, supplemented by direct commissions from private developers and commercial clients. Notable large-scale projects include the Cité universitaire Paul Appell (€40M), the Hôtel des Postes Strasbourg rehabilitation (€37M, UNESCO heritage, with Bouygues Bâtiment Nord Est), Lycée Robert Schuman Haguenau (€25M), and Groupe scolaire Prunelliers (€20.6M). The firm has won regional recognition including the Prix Régional de la Construction Bois and the Palmarès de l'Architecture et de l'Aménagement en Alsace.

Revenue is generated through fee-based professional services, with project-based pricing determined by scope and complexity. The firm operates as an SAS (Société par Actions Simplifiée) under a partnership ownership structure led by the founders, with Geoffroy Arnaux added as associate and named President in September 2023 to formalize a generational succession. The firm has no external institutional investment, no parent company, and no disclosed revenue, reflecting its status as a stable, privately held professional services partnership rooted in regional public-sector architecture.
