Hello everyone,

I am new to the forum and hope someone can help me.

We own a house in Fribourg and would like to make some small changes, ie a new garage, changing the cold room into a proper room etc. We contacted a local architect in August 2010. He told us he was busy and it may be a little while before coming back to us, "fine we said" expecting a few weeks, maybe a couple of months but it has now been 7 months and we have chased him twice and it is always the same "yes I will be in touch soon" hummmm... have decided he really cant be interested in our business and am now looking for a recommendation before going through the book to find a new one.

Any help will be really appreciated!

Thank you!!

Hi. There is a guy in Tarfers, Favre Marcel. ( Favrebehauseungen . ch )
He is a qualified architect, a local and he can speek English.
Well worth a call.

thank you for this, much appreciated!

We are building at the moment in central Swtiz and very happy with architect. Our 3rd architect so not easy to get the right person and can be pretty frustrating and expensive. He can meet in Zurich easily, was very accommodating and some good ideas. Not sure if he could travel to Fribourg but worth calling. Thomas Kälin,

Schmidschaerer are based in Zurich but work across the country. Friendly, talented and sincere people who were a pleasure to work with. Highly commended. English spoken

Hi, have a look at your personal messages please.

I don't know if you've found an architect yet, but I can really recommend these two architects (english-speaking), based in Zürich, but from Fribourg. They've had projects in Bern so location isn't a problem for them.

Both are graduates from the ETH and are very professional.

Good luck!
