About Atelier 5
Atelier 5 is a Bern architecture collective founded in 1955 by five young architects, now run by partners of the fourth and fifth generations, based in a former Ryff factory on Sandrainstrasse. Its name reflects its collective way of working.
The office is world-known for the Halen housing estate built between 1955 and 1962, a seminal example of post-war settlement design, and works today on housing estates, public buildings, hospitals, urban planning and renovations.
For clients in Bern seeking a practice with deep historical roots and a collective, continuity-based approach, Atelier 5 is a distinctive Swiss reference that puts the work above individual names.
