Jmw Architecten B.v.

What Jmw Architecten B.v. does

Jmw Architecten B.v. is a privately held Dutch architecture firm headquartered in Tilburg, Netherlands, founded in 1999 after winning a BNA (Branchevereniging voor Architectenbureaus) competition prize. The firm provides professional architectural design services across the full project lifecycle, from concept through completion, for residential buildings, apartment complexes, mixed-use developments, urban transformations, renovations, villas, and utility / multi-functional buildings. Its portfolio includes a notable concentration of mid- to large-scale residential commissions such as De Schaloen (570 apartments, Den Haag), Fonkel (236 apartments, Breda), De Burgemeester (150 apartments, Tilburg), Hispohof (~59 apartments, Hilvarenbeek), and Frankrijkstraat (95 apartments, Eindhoven), alongside bespoke single-family villas and care / community facilities.

The firm operates with a core team of eight, led by director and architect Jeroen Wouters, with the remaining personnel comprising architects, a project leader, and an office manager. Service delivery relies on conventional architectural and urban-design methods; no proprietary technology, AI, or digital product is referenced in the available data. Projects are acquired through direct relationships with Dutch real estate developers, housing corporations, municipalities, and private individuals, typically via competitive tenders or direct selection.

Revenue is generated entirely through professional-service fees on commissioned projects, with no publicly disclosed pricing, ARR, or revenue figures. Geographic operations are concentrated in North Brabant, with selected commissions extending into South Holland (Rotterdam, Den Haag) and Utrecht (Zeist). The firm holds no patents, no disclosed certifications, and no institutional investment or parent-company backing; it operates as an independently owned Besloten Vennootschap (Dutch private limited company).
