about the practice
Our practice provides architectural, interior design and general design services with great experience and to a high standard. We work on architectural and interior design from the very first idea to completion. Our work covers the full spectrum of architecture, from interior design to urban planning, and its architectural and professional quality is confirmed by numerous competition successes, Hungarian and international publications and professional awards. Among other things, we design family houses and residential buildings, community buildings, educational buildings, sports facilities, office buildings, hotels, restaurants and cafés, and we also undertake the design of commercial and industrial buildings, wineries and the renovation of listed buildings. We carry out architectural design with great care and rigour, regardless of the scale of the building. Our primary goal is to achieve outstanding architectural quality while taking the client's needs into account. We strive for individuality through innovative solutions, always bearing economy in mind. Our architectural credo is to create buildings that are rooted in tradition, strengthen the identity of the place, carry a sense of individuality, and are contemporary, sustainable, economical and environmentally conscious, balancing continuity with novelty. Our projects include commissions from churches, municipalities, companies and private clients.
