A new building or refurbishment will shape the operation of your fire department for decades to come. You want this project to be in good hands: In experienced and knowledgeable hands.
Origin and background: What is Gaus Red?
As part of the comprehensive rebranding of Gaus Architekten to GAUS, the Gaus Red label was deliberately introduced as a special brand to bundle and highlight expertise in fire department buildings.
The strategic approach: "One Brand Strategy" combined with sub-brands for specific service areas - in this case for fire department architecture. This creates a clear structure and target group approach
Sense and positioning
Focus & visibility: Gaus Red positions itself as a competent brand for public clients in the field of fire department buildings. It communicates specialist knowledge and experience to the outside world in a targeted manner.
The brand translates architectural expertise into a strong visual identity that creates orientation - spatially and communicatively.
Performance & Projects
Over four decades of experience and around 42 completed fire department projects with a total construction volume in the millions are testament to the expertise of Gaus Red.
The sub-brand was an integral part of the "EINSEINSZWEI" exhibition , which presented blue light projects in the Raumgalerie Stuttgart. The exhibition was shown until July 2024 and convincingly combined content, attitude and design.
Recognition & awards
In 2024, the rebranding of Gaus - including the introduction of the Gaus Red sub-brand - won the German Brand Award (Winner category "Building & Elements" and "Corporate Brand of the Year") and the ICONIC AWARD for Corporate Design
In 2025, Gaus Red was once again recognized as an independent architectural brand - with two German Brand Awards in the categories "Lighthouse Project of the Year" and "Brand Design - Corporate Brand". The jury particularly recognized the strategic brand presence and the design quality

We can say a lot about ourselves. But don't just believe us. Above all, believe those we have worked for.
Gaus Architekten have achieved an aesthetic masterpiece here and architecturally made the best of the requirements and materials.
The new wood building is a model of how we can move into circular construction and build our way out of the climate crisis.
As the client, we were able to benefit from the architectural firm's many years of experience throughout all phases of the construction process.
