Nordprojekt

What Nordprojekt does

Nord Projekt OÜ is a Tallinn-based architecture and engineering design firm founded in 1994, operating as a private limited company (OÜ) under Estonian ownership and management led by CEO Karmo Raudver and board member Karl Kirsimäe. The firm delivers integrated building design across six practice areas: principal design and project management, architecture (including interior architecture and render visualization), structural design (steel, concrete, timber), technical systems design (HVAC, water/sewage, electrical, building automation, specialized systems, energy labeling), client representation and consultation, and BIM coordination. Underlying technology is centered on Building Information Modeling using industry-standard software (Revit, Tekla Structures, MagiCAD, CadMatic) coordinated through the Trimble Connect platform, with ISO 9001 quality management certification.

The firm serves commercial property developers, residential developers, public-sector and municipal clients, industrial/logistics operators, and automotive retail brands. Documented clients include Audi, Porsche, Honda, Lamborghini/Bentley, Lexus, Mercedes-Benz, IKEA, Selver, Omniva, Swissotel, Kaamos, Liven Kinnisvara, Solina, and the North Prefecture police authority, among 800+ completed projects across nearly 30 years of operation, including landmark works such as Tornimäe Twin Towers, Audi Tower, KUMU, Saku Suurhall/Unibet Arena, Rocca al Mare Shopping Center, and the Solina industrial facility (BREEAM Very Good, 2024).

Nord Projekt monetizes through project-based professional services fees on fixed-price design contracts, with no public pricing disclosed and engagement terms tailored to scope and complexity. Go-to-market is sales-led and direct: the firm bids competitively and accepts referrals for tendered contracts across Estonia, supported by a portfolio-driven website and a partner network (Telora, 3ins, Aksial, Ehitusinseneer, Loovmaastik) for technical systems and landscape architecture. The firm does not disclose revenue, has no external funding, and has remained at roughly 17-18 specialists, indicating organic, founder-led growth without institutional capital or acquisition activity.
