Meixner Schlüter Wendt Architekten is an architecture firm established in Frankfurt am Main in 1997 by Claudia Meixner, Florian Schlüter, and Martin Wendt. The firm has about 50 employees and operates as a privately held company. Since its founding, it has remained in the same historic factory building in Frankfurt. Its scope covers projects ranging from residential and office buildings to conversions of churches, high-rises, and exhibition spaces.
Meixner Schlüter Wendt’s work is noted for an analytical and transformative approach. Each project begins with a thorough examination of the location and the program’s requirements, often leading to designs that reinterpret building typologies and local contexts. Examples of their distinctive projects include the Axis high-rise and the transformation of the Dornbuschkirche, both in Frankfurt. The Docks office building in Frankfurt’s Osthafen, recently completed, covers a gross floor area of nearly 38,000 square meters and features a striking container-inspired façade facing the water.
The firm's partners are also active in academic and public advisory roles, contributing to discussions on urban planning and architecture. Recognition for their work includes awards from the World Architecture Festival and the Venice Biennale of Architecture. The practice supplements commissioned buildings with independent spatial studies and conceptual research, demonstrating a commitment to both practical and theoretical exploration within architecture.
