Morger Partner Architekten AG

Spitalstraße 8
4056 Basel

The company history of Morger Partner Architekten begins in 1988 with the founding of the office Morger & Degelo by Meinrad Morger and Heinrich Degelo. With buildings such as the Messeturm in Basel (2003) and the Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein in Vaduz (2000), the office also attracted international attention. In 2006, the firm Morger + Dettli Architekten was founded, which was renamed Morger Partner in 2015 and was managed by Meinrad Morger with partners Martin Klein and Henning König. The office employs around 60 people in Basel. Morger Partner Architects work on a wide range of projects in Germany and abroad. The area of responsibility ranges from smaller, private buildings to large-scale public and private-sector projects. In the recent past, Morger Partner has implemented projects such as the indoor swimming pool, spa and sports centre in St. Moritz, the Hilti Art Foundation in Vaduz and the University of Art and Design in Basel. Important current projects of the office are new buildings such as the Claraturm in Basel and the Depot Hard in Zurich as well as the conversion of the Alte Akademie in Munich.

"Our buildings and projects are the result of a contextual way of working, in which important but also seemingly unimportant, but always specific conditions of the place, the task and the program are worked out. With the help of this kind of search for traces, we succeed in giving the rational process of joining components a suggestively poetic moment. In this respect, our architecture is less the result of formal intentions and more of a program."
