Visitors' Centre

Our team was asked by the municipality of Köbánya (Budapest, 10th district) to design a revitalization project for Óhegy park that could serve as a community and leisure park for locals and visitors as well. The task was to create a project, which could be an exciting monument in Budapest that's worth visiting even for tourists. The brief required the park to serve as a place for relaxation and recreation.

After thinking about the opportunities, our studio designed a lookout tower concept that functions as a community space, terrace as well. The lookout draws inspiration from the district's built and natural environment heritage, and important milestones from the history of Kőbánya.

Spiral Tower is our first prize winner concept for the lookout tower Bence-hegy inspired by the commonly known fairy tale Jack and the Beanstalk. The tower is designed as a significant and lovable artwork of its environment using suitable natural elements.
