The site is located in a dense urban area displaying the strong influence of Arabian culture. Buildings are characterized by playful floor plans and volumes. The shape of the plot is irregular, as it is narrow along the street and wide along the backyard. The volume of the house reflects on the existing stepped terrain.

We have chosen rough plaster as exterior covering since it is a local trait and it emphasizes the building volume. The heavy character of the volume and the strong vertical proportions are dissolved by the playful arrangement of prefabricated concrete pedestal cladding elements. The walkway, the pedestal and the external pavements meet in curved corners. This gesture opens up each surface and creates a spatial sculpture. Junctions either form pedestal claddings or benches.

Our commission was to design a residential building with three units including other functions such as storage areas and a gym.

In the Middle Ages, the house at 72 Úri street was the site of the parish building of the Church of Mary Magdalene. According to the Zaiger census of 1696, originally, there were two houses on the site. The remaining part of the northern house is the present building. The first well-documented reconstruction of the building occurred between 1939 and 1941 when an extensive basement system was secretly built. During the Second World War, the building suffered extensive damage. Recently, after ten years of abandonment, it was purchased by the Pallas Athéne Foundation at the end of 2014.

The Földes office was involved as a designer in the preparation of the permit design for this project. The final project was designed by GINKGO-Zöld Architects and Schüller & Partners Architects in 2021. The aim was to create a building worthy of the Foundation’s objectives and to support domestic developments, innovations, and artistic creations during the design process. It was also essential to open as much of the building as possible to the public.

On the ground floor is a bookshop, an exhibition space, and a catering unit, among other things. They form an area accessible to all visitors. On the first floor are offices for researchers, workstations for the Foundation, and multifunctional auditoriums. The workstations are flexible in terms of layout. The new open space of the attic houses the selected collection of the Hungarian Geographical Society and the library. A glass roof was installed over the walkway around the courtyard, thus connecting the library to the courtyard.

The underground area of over 1850 m2 has a public function utilizing a new circulation system. Among these is the collection of the Hungarian Geographical Society, housed in the Great Hall, which reopens the once-imposing space to visitors.

The task is to fill the buildings belonging to the church of Ják with new functions, to redefine the walking routes. One of the most famous and spectacular elements of the church is the gate, several copies of which have been made to preserve its original condition. Exhibition of these plaster copies and other remaining stone building ornaments, sculptures, window, cornice and column fragments will also be solved in a new exhibition space. There is also a restaurant in the area, which sometimes hosts weddings and various events. A key aspect is the harmonization of the different use of space by locals and visitors.

A Ilcsi Factory bejegyzés először Földesarchitects-én jelent meg.

The monumental building, designed by Béla Málnai for Dr. István Perényi, the director of the mines, and his family, is located in one of the most significant World Heritage sites of Budapest.

The neo-Baroque building was restored to its present interior condition 20 years ago and has not undergone any major renovation since. In its current state, the institutions can no longer operate the building in a way that meets the necessities of today’s world. The Földes office was commissioned to design a solution for this problem.

The design objective was to preserve the architectural values of the villa, but in a way that would meet the new functional needs and today’s thermal and energy requirements. At the same time, we sought to minimize the structural intervention in this prominent historic building. The interior spaces are designed to restore the original structures and satisfy the needs of the institute while welcoming guests in the 21st century.

Aesthetically, we have sought to balance the architecture, which in places has become overly dominant, with restrained use of color.
