Made-to-measure projects in the canton of Bern

The canton of Bern brings together very different realities, and this is reflected in made-to-measure projects. On the lake, in Thun, people readily convert a loft into a studio, add a conservatory with a mountain view or reorganise an old flat to suit several generations living together. In the Bernese Jura, around St-Imier, old watchmakers' houses with large workshop windows inspire lofts, artists' studios or home offices. In the Oberland, chalets and mountain farms call for solutions adapted to snow and narrow access roads. If your idea alters a façade or roof, the municipality will explain the steps to take.

  • In an old watchmaker's house, keep the ribbon windows if possible: they provide highly prized light for a workshop or office.
  • In the Oberland, schedule the work during the fine season if materials have to be taken up a mountain road.

Frequently asked questions

What details should I include for a bespoke project in Bern?

Describe the finished result, intended use and work that does not fit a standard category. Include approximate dimensions, materials and items to keep, with a sketch or safe photographs. State whether design, fabrication and installation should all be included in the proposed project.

How should I describe a project that spans several trades?

Explain the finished result first, then list the elements requiring design, fabrication or installation. Photographs or a sketch can show how these elements connect. Ask who coordinates the different tasks and which parts require a specialist assessment before a complete scope is agreed.

What should I compare in quotes for a bespoke project?

Compare deliverables, materials, design stages and installation against the same brief. Identify prototypes, measuring and any specialist checks separately. Ask how changes are documented and who approves final drawings, so that an initial concept is not confused with a finished installed item.

How should I prepare for a bespoke project visit or work?

Collect dimensions you can obtain safely, photographs and examples of the function or appearance wanted. Identify items to keep and restrictions on access. Keep the brief focused on the work; contact details and any sensitive documents can be handled privately when needed.
