The entire team at Steimle Architekten would like to thank you for a successful 2024.
Our year was once again characterized by exciting construction tasks, questions and problem solving in the projects, good cooperation with clients and planners, great attention to detail and the joy of appropriate, tangible architecture.

We are particularly pleased that this year we were able to hand over five of the projects that have been with us for a long time to their owners.
We would therefore like to wish the municipalities of Radolfzell, the eastern outreach area in Überlingen, the town of Wangen im Allgäu, the municipality of Backnang and the new residents there and Broadcast Studio in Mannheim Ludwigshafen much joy in their new buildings.

The db editorial team has dedicated its 12.2024 issue to the editors' favorites. We are delighted to be there with the Markolfhalle.

Since 1969, the Association of German Architects BDA Baden-Württemberg has awarded the Hugo Häring Prize for exemplary architecture to clients and architects every three years.

581 buildings from Baden-Württemberg were submitted for the 2023/2024 award procedure. One hundred and fourteen of them received the award. Of these, a five-member jury selected eight buildings for the Hugo Häring State Prize. The large district town of Radolfzell and Steimle Architekten received one of the eight prizes for the joint project Markolfhalle, at Pirminweg 5 Radolfzell.

We are delighted about the publication of our Markolfhalle for the “Hugo Häring Prize 2024 - Architecture in Baden-Württemberg” Together with many other projects worth seeing, the multi-purpose hall in Markelfingen has been published over three pages in this book.

The sweet smells of roasted almonds and mulled wine have been filling our noses in our offices on Stuttgart's market square for a few weeks now. Just in time for St. Nicholas' Day, the Christmas spirit also moved into the offices. With a sack race and a singing competition, we set off for the south of Stuttgart. Christmas was then heralded in with a home-cooked feast at the pbcooking school.
We wish everyone a wonderful Advent season.

Überlingen High School is planning a new building on the school campus on Obertorstrasse. Our design envisages two intersecting structures that zone the open spaces and break areas and create a place of arrival. Inside the timber building, the clusters with learning balconies and views of the green inner courtyards offer a varied and appropriate learning landscape.

As part of the lecture series “Jung - Architecture Talks”, an invitation has been extended to Munich on 14.11.24. The motto of the evening is - Make Architecture Great Again - and Thomas Steimle will be among those giving insights into the work of Steimle Architekten.

Twenty-five “Exemplary Building” awards were presented in October for the district of Constance 2018-2024. Among the award winners was the Markolfhalle at the entrance to the village of Markelfingen in the district of Radolfzell.

On February 6, 2025 at 6 pm, the award ceremony and exhibition opening of the award-winning works will take place at the District Office of Constance.

We recommend taking a look at the architecture guide before your next vacation in Germany and exploring exciting buildings along the way. For example, our Markolfhalle, which is located in Radolfzell on Lake Constance. But there is also extraordinary architecture beyond the southwest in the Architecture Guide Germany 2025.

This guide and other architectual guides you can find on the website of DOM Publisher.
