Anyone who is thinking about buying, selling, building, remodeling or refurbishing a house or apartment often doesn't know where to turn first. The construction and real estate industry is a complex market with companies and organizations across the entire value chain. It is not easy to find your way around this map. A location assessment can provide clarity here.

As an architect with many years of experience in the residential and real estate market, I support you in the purchase or conversion of your residential property as well as in the sale and marketing of your property. Starting with a thorough market value analysis and documentation of your property, I will find the right buyer for you who suits you or your community of owners. Trust in our expertise for all questions relating to your residential property.

It all starts with an idea, a desire for change or even an urgency. Housing is linked to our desire for security and safety, but also for status and self-realization. How do I want to live - alone or in a community? What suits me and what can I afford? Changes in the living situation are emotionally moving, but also an opportunity for a new beginning.

Sometimes all it takes is a touch-up in the old environment and rooms gain a more individual look. Whether you want to downsize or expand, bring more individuality or more color into your living space, want new furniture or art, or if you simply need more storage space. We offer you a tailor-made solution for every budget. Through our network of planners and craftsmen, we can find the right solution for every budget.

Arthema stands for professional housing and real estate advice. Evelyn Frisch, the owner, is an ETH architect with a keen sense for individual living space design. Her experience ranges from the marketing of residential property to renovation and individual color design of living spaces according to Feng Shui. She advises customers on their individual living needs and has an eye for valuable architecture and interior design.

Further training in property valuation and property marketing, but also in change management and experience in the conversion and renovation of residential properties using natural building materials (and Feng Shui if desired) make her a real estate professional with personal charisma. A broad network of experts in the construction and property industry as well as in the area of cooperative housing and multi-generational living round off her profile.

In an initial contact, we clarify your current situation, your wishes and your financial possibilities. If you are planning a larger construction or renovation project, we will advise or accompany you through all processes from planning, financing and building permits to construction implementation and a successful move into your new home. We will also support you when moving, downsizing or changing your household and living situation.

If you are considering selling your property, we will plan the next steps together for an optimal presentation of your property and its placement on the market. This also includes a thorough market value analysis and the definition of your target customers. A professional and expert tour of your property for interested parties and support in clarifying financing can be crucial for a successful sale.

After studying architecture at ETH Zurich, I worked as a research assistant at the ETH's Institute for the History of Urban Development. During this time, the basis for an anthology of European urban development was created with an exhibition entitled "The Model of the City". I wrote for architecture magazines and then became communications manager for Lignum, later director of the Swiss Steel Construction Center and managing director of Wohnbau Genossenschaften Zürich. One of my concerns has always been socially acceptable urban development, careful handling of historical buildings and sustainable, pollutant-free and energy-conscious construction.

I have completed further training in real estate management and real estate valuation at the ZHAW and have experience in marketing residential properties with well-known real estate agents in the Zurich region. As an architect, I have concrete construction experience, particularly in the renovation and conversion of existing buildings and in interior design. Training in Feng Shui supports my flair for harmonious interiors tailored to the customer.

Organizing processes and leading employees and project teams also requires human empathy. A CAS in change management and organizational development at the ZHAW gave my natural leadership profile the necessary technical polish. I can develop teams and help organizations to develop their own identity and effective structure. This know-how is also useful when dealing with customers and authorities, as well as in project development in general. I have also proven myself as a coach in all situations in consulting and personal development.

My own life has presented me with a number of challenges, both in my personal and family life. I have experience in dealing with changes in life in general - whether professional, personal or family. I have been a support worker for a young person with disabilities for many years and am responsible for the complex needs of my elderly and now deceased parents. I have trained myself in psychology (according to CG Jung) and coaching (NLP and hypnosis coach with Erich Zulauf).

I have implemented the text level many times in my many years of professional experience as a journalist, author and editor. I use the understandable and appealing linguistic presentation of complex content in book projects, but also for websites and annual reports of business customers. One reference is the extensive conceptual and content work and the editing for the book "Building in Steel - a History of Swiss Steel Construction" published by Hochparterre in May 2022. Further mandates for editing in the field of art and architecture are in progress.

I received basic design training during my architecture studies at ETH under the well-known design teacher Peter Jenny (ZHdK) and supplemented this with further training as an illustrator at F F and currently with the SVEB diploma for adult education at the Institute for Art Therapy iac. My interest in art is reflected in the connections and friendships with numerous visual artists and galleries. I draw and paint myself - and use imaging (analog) processes in systemic consulting and coaching.
