R4 Raumwelten

What R4 Raumwelten does

R4 Raumwelten AG is a privately held Swiss full-service interior solutions provider headquartered in Worb (Canton of Bern), founded in 1986 as a sole proprietorship by Paul Reidhaar and rebranded to its current form in March 2020. The company operates through four integrated service pillars—Konzeption (space analysis, layout planning, and project management), Schreinerei (in-house custom carpentry and joinery), Einrichtung (furnishing and installation combining in-house and partner-supplied furniture), and Logistik (furniture storage, transport, and a webshop-based inventory redeployment system known as the Möbel-Hotel)—and also runs 4yourspace, an online marketplace for second-hand design office furniture. Its technical capabilities center on a 5,000 sqm consolidated facility housing offices, carpentry workshop, and warehouse, with custom furniture production using sustainable-sourced wood and modern machinery, and a digital webshop that lets clients view stored inventory, track stock levels, and redeploy furniture with a few clicks. The company serves large Swiss enterprise and government clients—including Swisscom, SBB, BBL, ESTV, BKW, Inselspital, and Hirslanden—through consultation-driven, project-based field sales, with multi-year contract cadence and pricing determined per project scope rather than via standardized price lists. Revenue is generated across custom furniture manufacturing, professional space design and consulting, managed furniture logistics, furniture-hotel rental, and transaction fees from the second-hand platform. The company employs approximately 20 people and is majority-owned by co-managing director Giuliano Romano, who acquired the Reidhaar family stake in January 2026 alongside co-leader Beat Schüpbach.
