ARCHIprocess GmbH

What ARCHIprocess GmbH does

ARCHIprocess GmbH is a privately held German architecture and engineering firm headquartered in Dresden (Rähnitzgasse 10; HRB 34178), founded in 2015 and co-managed by registered architects Sebastian Fest (Architektenkammer Sachsen Nr. 5305) and Kai Michel (Nr. 4617). The firm delivers full-scope architectural services from competition entry through construction supervision (LP 1–8 under the German HOAI fee framework), including general planning (architecture, structural engineering, building services), project steering, fire protection planning, and building physics with Life Cycle Assessment.

Its technical positioning emphasizes sustainable construction: timber construction (Holzbau), green facade systems with pre-cultivated panels from regional nurseries, photovoltaic integration, and lifecycle/CO2 optimization. Projects are executed under formal certifications including DGNB (Silver awarded on BallsportARENA Dresden), BNB, QNG, and the KfW-40+ energy efficiency standard. Methodological backbone consists of Building Information Modeling (BIM) for complex projects and material data-driven LCA analysis.

The business model is fee-for-service architecture and engineering, won primarily through VgV architectural competitions, German public tenders, and direct client relationships. The customer base is split between German municipalities and public institutions (Dresden, Potsdam, Bautzen, Mannheim, Erding, Munich) and private enterprises (Carl Knauber Holding, Jägermeister, Novis Air/ULT AG, Sportimmobilien Saegeling), with a developing footprint in religious and educational institution security planning. Geographic reach extends across at least seven German federal states.
