The studio

Built on respect for what endures.

We are a Budapest-based collective of architects, craftspeople and project leaders united by one belief: the best renovations make a historic building feel more itself—not less.

A regional point of view

Local knowledge. International standards.

Central Europe’s architectural fabric is remarkably varied—and deeply regulated. Our network brings together local permitting knowledge, traditional craft and contemporary technical expertise in every city where we work.

Clients deal with one accountable studio throughout. Behind that single relationship is a carefully assembled team specific to the property, its era and the ambition for its future.

How we work

The details are
the design.

Our decisions are guided by three principles that hold from the earliest survey through to the last piece of fitted joinery.

01

Listen before drawing

The building, its archives and its current owners all have something essential to tell us. Discovery shapes every proposal.

02

Intervene with purpose

Every new material and system must earn its place. We favour clarity, durability and a quiet dialogue with the original fabric.

03

Make quality visible

Good project leadership is felt in the finish: aligned teams, transparent decisions and craft delivered without compromise.

Our responsibility

Past · Present · Future

“Restoration is not nostalgia. It is the disciplined act of carrying value forward.”
