Our team – compact, creative, full of character

Nine professionals, one common ambition: architecture with heart and mind. At BELVEDERE Architecture, our team includes two interior designers, five architects (three of whom specialize in urban planning), one assistant, and one marketing manager. Previously active in various other professions such as blacksmithing or banking, today we combine diverse backgrounds with expertise in sustainability, procurement, residential construction, IT, and photography.

We offer not only multiple qualifications but also distinct personalities—from private successes in Jiu-Jitsu to artistic side ventures and passionate dog lovers. Our diversity is no accident—it is fundamental to our concept.

BELVEDERE Architecture has been active in the Luxembourg real estate market for over 20 years and has been officially registered as an architecture firm with the Ordre des Architectes et des Ingénieurs-Conseils (OAI) since 2016.

The OAI (Ordre des Architectes et des Ingénieurs-Conseils) is the official professional body representing architects, consulting engineers and urban planners in Luxembourg. BELVEDERE Architecture is registered with the OAI both as an architectural office and as an urbaniste-aménageur. The registration in urban planning was completed in 2019.

In 2024, BELVEDERE Architecture and the project team were awarded the Bauhärepräis for the complex renovation and conversion of the listed Landewyck Building in the Hollerich district of Luxembourg City. The project, commissioned by Landimmo Real Estate, involved a landmark of Bauhaus architecture.

In addition, BELVEDERE Architecture received two awards in the 2019 CBRE “Best Office Space” competition: “Best Lobby” and “Best Technology Advanced Space”.

BELVEDERE Architecture manages a wide range of building types – from new constructions, conversions, and renovations to extensions in the residential, office, retail, and industrial sectors. We also design projects in the Horesca sector, public buildings, and heritage sites across Luxembourg and the Greater Region.

Yes, BELVEDERE Architecture offers interior architecture services – for private residences, restaurants, childcare facilities, and above all, for office and workspace projects. In this field, we have extensive experience based on numerous successfully completed projects, including award-winning workspaces such as the Landewyck Building and the IEE Headquarters + R&D Center in Bissen.

Yes, BELVEDERE Architecture supports the client in selecting furniture tailored to function, spatial effect, and budget. When standard solutions are not sufficient, we design custom-made furniture – from concept to implementation. This applies to all our projects: whether a private residence, office space, restaurant or childcare facility – we develop solutions precisely aligned with the client's needs.

Yes, BELVEDERE Architecture conducts occupancy studies and workflow analyses as part of its workspace design services. We analyse how spaces are used in practice, identify inefficiencies, and develop optimisation strategies. Our workflow analyses help align spatial layouts with actual work processes, communication flows and operational needs. These methods have proven effective in office environments, public administration, and service-based workspaces.

Before entering the design phase, our urban planning department carries out feasibility studies to assess the viability of a project and to estimate its development and economic potential. We support our clients – whether private individuals, developers, municipalities or public authorities – in their decision-making as well as in the planning and development of special development plans (PAP), including PAP NQ (new district) and MOPO procedures (modification ponctuelle).
