A first for our school projects: the Fritz Ulrich School in Heilbronn has received the Beispielhaftes Bauen award. We are proud to see a school join the ranks of our recognised projects.

Over three years while the school remained in operation we transformed the 1960s building into a modern, barrier-free environment for around 400 pupils. Two 13-metre-high atriums now form the heart of the school, complemented by a light-filled foyer, new learning spaces, a greener schoolyard and extensive energy upgrades.

By preserving and carefully adapting the existing structure, the project demonstrates how sustainable transformation can create inspiring places for learning and community.

So fühlt sich Sommer an! 🌞

Wenn Kollegen aus allen Standorten auf Grill, Beats und Tischtennisplatte treffen, verwandelt sich der Garten des Stuttgarter Headquarters für einen Abend in den wohl schönsten Arbeitsplatz des Sommers. Teams aus Stuttgart, Mannheim, Berlin und München kommen zusammen, um gemeinsam mit blocher partners sens, blocher partners sustain und typenraum zu essen, zu lachen und zu tanzen. 🎉

Die Sommerparty zeigt, was blocher partners seit vier Jahrzehnten verbindet: Neugier, interdisziplinärer Austausch und ein Miteinander, das nicht an der Bürotür endet.

Ein riesiges Dankeschön an unseren Grillmeister Stefan Nägele und sein Team, unseren DJ Cici und natürlich an alle, die diesen Abend unvergesslich gemacht haben. So fühlt sich Sommer an! 🌟

EmiLu needs your vote.

The design hotel has been nominated for the Badischer Architektur Preis 2026 in the Hospitality category — as one of only three projects.

The transformation of a 1960s administrative building into an urban hotel with a distinct identity required a sensitive approach to the existing structure. blocher partners was responsible for the façade design and interior architecture.

From the green reception desk and the 90 rooms and suites to the rooftop lounge, every space follows one shared idea: creating a hotel that feels both urban and personal.

Now it is up to you: click the link in our bio and vote for EmiLu.

Transdisciplinary by design, this daycare brings architecture, interior design and landscape into one shared learning environment.

At the edge of Mannheim’s Waldpark, the timber building opens towards nature and creates space for play, discovery and everyday rituals. Clear architectural contours meet soft, organic interiors, while green roofs, photovoltaics and natural materials make sustainability part of the children’s daily experience.
